<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 2506578, member: 12789&quot;]As large as the pennies and tuppence were, there were tokens minted by Matthew Boulton for the Birmingham Workhouse in 1813 that tariffed at threepence(weighed about 2.5 oz) and sixpence(weighed 5 oz).&nbsp; The threepence were struck for general circulation in Birmingham, but the tanners being more of a hockey puck size were impractical for striking in quantity and only exist as patterns.&nbsp; I have a few of the threepence and really really want the sixpence.&nbsp; The threepence was the largest coin/token that ever really circulated in Great Britain.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
