Threepence 1842 (Circulating), Coin from United Kingdom

Threepence 1842 (Circulating), Coin from United Kingdom (demonetised 1971)

Coin	Threepence 1842 (Circulating)

There were two forms of threepence, the currency issue like this piece (with a duller surface), and a special piece for the Maundy Thursday ceremonies - both with numeral 3 on the reverse but the Maundy issues have a proof-like finish.

Apart from the surface quality, they are indistinguishable. For the purpose of completeness though, the Maundy coins are listed separately in the Non Circulating Legal Tender (NCLT) section.
