Removed waffling and patronising paragraph:

Of course the original groat or half groat, in its day, would have bought considerably more than its modern equivalent, and might also have a value, both in the current antique coin market and metal commodities markets, well above two or four pence.

[edit] Agricultural groat

I found this page because I was looking for information on groats in the agricultural sense of the word. I know that oat kernels, when dehulled, are called "oat groats" and I know that other grains are called "groats" sometimes, so I wanted to find out which grains can be called "groats" and when. I am a newbie to wiki stuff; is this worth making another page and a disambiguation page, or is the agricultural meaning of the word "groat" too obscure for Wikipedia? --Steveha 17:59, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I too was looking for the alternative meaning of Groat, it appears to me to be any part of the dehulked grain kernal, not just pertaining to oats. However I am not sure of this, anyone in the know should do something about this lack of information on wikipedia. --62.173.194.7 12:26, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
