Great Britain. Uniface Silver Pattern 20 Pence or Double
Florin
. Elizabeth II. Struck at the Royal Mint in 1963 to the
same dimensions (36mm diameter) as the Victorian Four Shil-
ling coin. Obverse portrait of Queen Elizabeth II (without leg-
end) by Machin. Reverse is intentionally blank. This is an
extremely rare coin (probably only 2-3 pieces known) which
formed a part of the Mint' s numismatic experiments, before the
dawn of decimalisation. Eventually a small multi-sided and quite
different 20 pence coin was introduced in 1982, but some 19
years earlier the Royal Mint had obviously contemplated the
provision of a 36mm diameter decimal 20 pence which would
take the place of the (larger) 25 pence Crown coin.
