The King's Shilling Pillow
Armed Forces Gift Pillow
designed and sold by Lyvershop
The King's shilling, sometimes called the Queen's shilling when the Sovereign is female, is a historical slang term referring to the payment of one shilling given to recruits to the Armed forces of the United Kingdom dating back to the end of the English Civil War. To "take the King's shilling" was to agree to serve as a sailor or soldier in the Royal Navy or the British Army. It is closely related to the act of impressment. The practice officially stopped in 1879, although the term is still used informally.
