Standardowa waga tych monet wynosiła 8/11 uncji trojańskiej (349,1 ziaren).

Ta konkretna moneta nie została uwzględniona w przepisach dotyczących demonetyzacji, gdy w 1971 roku wprowadzono decymalizację. Mennica Królewska potwierdziła, że moneta pozostaje prawnym środkiem płatniczym, ponieważ została zdemonetyzowana z wartością 20 pensów.

Odmiany matrycy rewersu:
Sp#3922 (tylko 1887) Roman I w dacie;
Sp#3923 (1887-90) arabska 1 w dacie;

Dane dotyczące emisji z 1887 r. obejmują obie odmiany matryc. Automatically translated

The standard weight of these coins was 8/11 troy ounce (349.1 grains).

This particular coin was not included in demonetization legislation when decimalisation was introduced in 1971. It has been confirmed by the Royal Mint that the coin remains legal tender, having been remonetized with a value of 20 pence.
