Three 1920 UK George V .500 Silver Coins Comprising Florin Shilling and Threepence - A collection of three quaternary silver coins from the United Kingdom, dated 1920, issued during the reign of King George V. The group includes a florin, a shilling, and a threepence. This year represents a transitional period in British numismatics where the silver fineness was reduced from .925 sterling to .500 fineness. The florin features the bare-headed portrait of George V on the obverse with four crowned shields in a cruciform arrangement on the reverse. The shilling bears the same monarch's portrait with a crowned lion standing atop a crown on the reverse. The threepence displays the crowned numeral 3 within an oak wreath. All coins lack mint marks, indicating production at the Royal Mint in London. Metal Composition: .500 silver.
