George 3rd 1816-20 new coinage.
"In 1816 for the first time British silver coins were produced with an intrinsic value substantially below their face value, the first official token coinage.
Steam powered minting machinery produced coins that were technically much superior to the older milled coins."
Thanks for looking...........Doug.
