The traditional Half Penny coin was usually known as a Halfpenny.

It had a worth of one four-hundred-and-eightieth of a pound sterling or half of a Penny. As a milled coin it was originally minted in Copper and the first year struck was 1673; after 1860 it was minted in Bronze. It ceased to be legal tender in 1969. From 1672 until 1936 the image of Britannia appeared on the reverse. From 1937 onwards the image of the Golden Hind appeared.
