Today I've been mainly looking at Six Pence's. 

George II, interestingly the1745 has the "Lima" stamp, I only just seen today ...... The 1745 sixpence coin from the reign of King George II is a silver coin notable for its historical significance and value, made from captured Spanish silver. Lima, Peru👍

I think you are reading the figure for proof issues of this date, which is 1312. Regular business strike, of which this is an example, the figure is 7,010,000 !

Actually,  it’s the Jubilee Head issue for 1893 that's very rare - the Old Head which you have is the normal (not rare) issue.

But the 1821 is a very nice example.

3 Crowns.

Charles II 1668

Victoria 1845

Victoria1892 

This Is another challenge, I dont recall where I bought these, Its most likely a Boot Fair Circa 1980's 90's I really ought to have a valuation as nothing has been listed on insurance, Its quite possible that Ive had a charmed life of things looking back at some of the ones I've bought....Blindly!?!? I just believed that if I liked them and they felt good... it was good.... I keep putting off things as theres another zip bag of Hammered coins I found 4 weeks ago to go through......this could be a blessing...... or a curse!   😟

The 1668 and 1845 crowns are scarce I would say, and worth a decent amount too.
