As far as I can tell from the KM manual, Great Britain itself did not mint silver coins at crown or lesser denomination for general circulation in GB during the QE II reign. Plenty of other countries coined silver with QEII portrait. Crowns stopped being produced after 1937 and were 50% silver that year. They were not produced again until 1951, and only had 1 year runs in 1951, 1953, 1960 and 1965 and were copper-nickel. Half crowns were produced in silver through WWII but went to copper nickel in 1947 along with shillings, florins, and 6 pence coins. WWII ended silver in circulation in GB it seems. Silver might have been around, but we all know that fiat will drive precious metals out of circulation pretty quickly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
