Comments

Standardowa waga tych monet wynosiła 48 do funta lub jedną trzecią uncji avoirdupois (145,8 ziaren).

Ze względu na dużą liczbę groszy będących już w obiegu w 1953 roku, monety te nie zostały wybite do obiegu, ale zostały wyemitowane jako część zestawu 9 monet Royal Mint w plastikowej kopercie. Uważa się, że wiele z tych zestawów zostało rozbitych, a monety trafiły do obiegu.

Wydano również specjalny zestaw próbny zawierający monety od 5s. do 1/4d. wybite z polerowanych matryc i sprzedawane w specjalnych pudełkach (wyemitowano 40 000 sztuk).
