Old informal word for a sixpence (6)

I believe the answer is:

tanner

(Other definitions for tanner that I've seen before include "Formerly 6d (sl.)" , "One might catch the sun" , ".One who cures animal hides" , "Curer of hides, maker of leather" , "Person making hides into leather" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
