Great Britain 1, 2, 3, and 4 Pence 1729 to 1760

CoinQuest thanks Tony Clayton for use of his pictures on his terrific website: Pictures of Coins of the UK.

George II is getting back up there, Izel. Early dates on small denomination British silver coinage start to pick up collector value, especially in well preserved condition. I'd say Tony's 4 pence coin (pictured) is well preserved, so use that as a guide in the lists below.
