When it comes to coins, none are more synonymous with the festive period than the iconic silver sixpence. In Victorian times, families would place a sixpence into their Christmas pudding mix and it was said that whoever received it when the dish was served would enjoy good luck in the year ahead. In 2016, we introduced a new decimal version of this classic coin in the form of a sterling silver 6p piece and have continued to produce this denomination every year since. Whether you want to recreate the quirky Christmas pudding tradition or simply collect the 6p piece as a festive memento, this year-dated coin is the perfect way to commemorate this wonderful time of year.
