Jbuck wins. Although if the standard had been the coolest coin with weight and fineness, I definitely would go with Keith12.

Can do 2 out of 3   UK - William IV Half Crown 1834 1834? - Check, Majority Silver? - Check, 5 - No, but mainly as Britain was not using Decimal currency in 1834.

Quote: 5 - No, but mainly as Britain was not using Decimal currency in 1834. True, true.  Prince and bd251 on the board with a pair of points each. Tie goes to the Prince.  We can let this play out until Monday morning.

You can still get a predecimal face value of five. A crown is five shillings
