Elizabeth II, Niue / Cook Islands FDC

This is the first time that we have been able to offer these huge silvered 10 Kwacha coins from Malawi. They measure about 2 inches across, have a full-colour photo of a bird of prey on one side and the arms of Malawi on the other side. They were issued in 2010 are in Proof condition and come in a protective capsule. You will love the coins and you will love our price on them!

This privately issued Scottish 5 Euro piece was made in 2009 by Scotmint Ltd. They have a handsome facing bust of Robert Burns on the obverse and a map of Europe with the number 5 on the reverse. These high relief 36mm pieces were struck in Golden Alloy (2,500 pieces made). We bought all that Scotmint had left. Each piece comes in a high quality presentation case with a certificate of authenticity. They were made 12 years ago to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns. This is a beautiful Ecu Goldine 5 Euro Piece. We bought them right, so we are going to sell them right. But supplies are limited and they are rather handsome pieces at great value prices.

In 1951, to celebrate the end of austerity after World War II, the British Government held a ‘Festival of Britain’ on the South Bank in London. They also issued a special Crown for King George VI, only the second crown struck for this monarch in this country. The first was struck for his Coronation in 1937 and that was half silver, this second and last crown was struck in Prooflike cupronickel. You have the bare head of the King on one side and St. George slaying the dragon on the other side. This is supplied with one of the original card cases that the crown was issued in 1951. The coins are Uncirculated but the card cases have seen a little bit of wear. After all, even a card case was a luxury at that time. Some marketing companies are charging £30.00 plus £4.95 extra for a card case. We think our price is a bit more reasonable.
