Description
Four silver sixpences of Elizabeth I of England (1558-1603), dated 1567, 1574 and 1583 (found by Mr Small) and 1567 (found by Mr Williams).

Discussion
Silver coins of Elizabeth are found fairly regularly and the sixpence is a commonly-encountered denomination, playing a significant part in most coin hoards from the later sixteenth and sevente…
