In 2018 for only the third time since 1946, the Royal Mint released a very special Limited Issue 6D Six Pence Silver Coin and will be struck in solid .925 Sterling Silver for the second time during her reign.
The reverse design depicts a crown with 2018 and 'E II R' in writing while the obverse features the Fifth Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark. The Silver Six Pence has long been given as a token of good luck, for a new job, moving home, getting married, new baby, baby christening. It has long been tradition to include one in Christmas puddings or in the shoe of a bride fulfilling the traditional rhyme something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue and a Silver Six Pence in her shoe.
