The twentieth and early twenty-first centuries have been a momentous period in Britain's history. It has seen immense social, political and economic change, both in Britain and around the world. But throughout all of this, the British monarchy has endured. To celebrate these monarchs of modern Britain – from Queen Victoria to Charles III – Danbury Mint has put together a magnificent collection of the coinage from their reigns.
This spectacular collection features six sets of pre-decimal and decimal coins from the reigns of the monarchs of the last 125 years: Victoria, Edward VII, George V, George VI, Elizabeth II and Charles III. You’ll find examples of the last 92.5% silver coins, and the 50% silver and nickel-brass coins that replaced them. You’ll see the ‘Old Head’ coinage of Queen Victoria, whose portrait is a glimpse into the grief she felt following the death of her beloved husband. And there are also Brilliant Uncirculated coins from 2023 – the year of Charles III’s coronation – featuring brand new reverse designs and the new official coinage portrait of the king.
For stunning display and safe storage, a handsome wooden display chest is included with every collection − at no extra charge! With a silver-toned lock for added security, a glass top for easy viewing and a removable top tray for convenient storage, it’s the perfect way to protect and showcase this impressive collection. It will arrive in your third shipment, along with a Certificate of Authenticity and a fascinating Information Booklet.
Actual size of chest is 12¾" x 9½" x 3½".
