The Australian Shilling Coin Cufflinks – Product Overview

These Shiny Silver Shilling Coin Cufflinks are truly stunning statement pieces in themselves. A striking choice popular with the more confident among our clients.

Their historical significance can’t be surpassed in this nation as they were the very first Commonwealth coins to be circulated in Australia.

They have beautiful Rams Head on the ‘tails’ side where the ‘head’ really depends on the year. The majority of our series however, still have a young Queen Elizabeth on them.

Originally these Australian Shillings were minted at 100% silver but were debased to 50% silver in 1946 to help in pay back the massive war debt.

Coins are in excellent condition, considering their popular circulation, but they were treated in a rather precious way back in their day and we have just restored them and brought them to life again in our master crafted cufflinks.

These come presented in a classy gift box, and are backed by our 3 year warranty.

More History to Reference about the Australian Shilling Coin

Australian Silver Shilling Coin CufflinksOriginally the Shillings that were circulating throughout Australia were actually minted in the UK directly (between 1910 – 1915) bearing the effigy of Edward VII.

By 1916 the Melbourne mint assumed the manufacture of most shillings. Sydney assisted with the minting of shillings from 1922 to 1926 when the Sydney Mint then closed down.

In 1921 shillings were struck in Sydney. These coins have a star above the date but it is not a mintmark. The star was intended to signify a change in silver content but the change never eventuated. The Melbourne mint did strike 1,122,000 shillings in 1921 but they were all dated 1920.

Melbourne took over sole minting of shillings from 1927 to 1941.
