seems like some strange stuff going on at the mint, no official release but the bay is awash with them https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=paddington+bear+silver+proof+50p&_sacat=0

http://www.jncoins.co.uk/Shop/half-crowns/415-elizabeth-ii-proof-half-crown-1953.html beautiful coin

deposits from the field, area is infested with iron,

a bit rusty and holed but still nice to find, especially as land is at a premium now we are heading into summer

taken form the Royal mint museum facebook page, and what a beauty this coin is, almost certainly unique The coin illustrated here is a piedfort sixpence of 1963. It is the same diameter and carries the same designs as a standard sixpence but at 6.460g it is more than double the normal weight and it is made in sterling silver. For many years it has been in the Mint collection but so far it has not been possible to determine precisely why it was struck. There is no evidence of relevant experiments taking place at that time and in terms of size it cannot be related to any other coin the Mint was making in 1963. For the time being, therefore, the coin remains a mystery but the search will continue for an answer.

do you have any pictures, i would start by sending it off to the royal mint museum to have it authenticated first off , they now charge £20 for this service https://www.royalmint.com/collector-services/valuations/

and a nice little Carlisle cut half of Henry III

my only hammy to have rainbow toning, natural or man made ? have no provenience for this coin is a class 2b, henry 3 nicole london
