A classic statement piece with real British history behind it.

This British sixpence tie pin features a genuine vintage sixpence, carefully soldered onto a classic silver-plated tie pin and finished by hand in our Cambridge workshop. Understated and timeless, it’s designed for men who appreciate meaningful details rather than loud accessories.

Because you can choose the year, this piece becomes more than just an accessory - it becomes personal. Whether worn on a wedding day, at a formal event, or kept as a personal talisman, this is a piece that carries both story and substance.

This piece can be upgraded with our Mintique of Cambridge luxury branded jewellery box, designed to complement the heritage nature of our jewellery and make the unboxing experience feel truly special. Perfect for gifting.

Please note: Images may show multiple tie pins to illustrate different dates and designs. This listing is for one (1) tie pin, made with the year you select.

Depending on the year selected, the sixpence will feature one of two monarchs:

  • 1937-1951: King George VI

  • 1953-1967: Queen Elizabeth II

Both versions carry the familiar sixpence design and deep-rooted associations with good fortune, prosperity, and British tradition. Please note that coins dated 1952 are not available due to very low mintage of sixpences that year.

Each coin shows natural variation from circulation, adding to its individual character and authenticity.

A thoughtful gift for him

This tie pin makes a meaningful gift for:

  • Weddings and groomsmen
  • Anniversaries and milestone birthdays
  • British heritage or coin enthusiasts
  • Men who favour classic, understated style

It pairs beautifully with navy, grey, tweed, or textured ties and sits neatly without overpowering the overall look.

As with all Mintique of Cambridge designs, this piece is made slowly and intentionally - bringing together history, craftsmanship, and modern wearability in a form that feels personal rather than mass-produced.
