Dom Windsorów (od 1917 do dziś), Elżbieta II (1952-2022), emisje przeddziesiętne (1953-70).

Pierwotna waga tych monet wynosiła 1/11 uncji trojańskiej (43,6 g). Zgodnie z ustawą o monetach z 1946 r., skład zmienił się z .500 srebra na .750 miedzi / .250 niklu, ale waga pozostała na poziomie 43,6 grama.

Odmiany rewersu z 1955 roku:
Rewers B F z FID na paciorku, D z FID na paciorku, I z FID na paciorku, I z SIX między paciorkami;
Rewers C F z FID między paciorkami, D z FID między paciorkami, I z FID między paciorkami, I z SIX na prawo od paciorka;

Odmiana "double-struck" z 1964 roku:

1964-65 odmiany matryc awersu:
Awers 3 2. A z GRATIA między paciorkami, I z REGINA między paciorkami, 92 duże paciorki blisko krawędzi, brak linii brwi;
Awers 4: 2. A GRATIA przy paciorku, I REGINA przy paciorku, 95 małych paciorków dalej od rantu, przerywana linia brwi;

Powyższe zdjęcia są reprodukowane za uprzejmą zgodą Declana Magee i członka Numista Sjoelunda.

Monety próbne z datą 1970 zostały wyemitowane jako część zestawu menniczego "Last Sterling", który obejmował
od pół korony do pół pensa i były produkowane przez kilka lat:
01/04/71-31/03/72 = 69,763
01/04/72-31/03/73 = 586,554
01/04/73-31/03/74 = 74,293
01/04/74-31/03/75 = 19,814
