Tristan da Cunha, £5 80th Birthday of HMQ, 2006 (buy 1 get 1 FREE)

In 1986 on the 23rd of July Prince Andrew married Miss Sarah Ferguson, a marriage that was not to last, unfortunately. Two South Atlantic islands, St. Helena and Ascension Island, combined to honour this event and by combining they made a rather interesting piece. You have the couple on one side with Prince Andrew in military uniform, a few years earlier he served as a helicopter pilot in the Falkland Islands. The other side has Prince Andrew’s Mother, better known as H.M. Queen Elizabeth II. These are cupronickel crownsized 50 Pence pieces and are in Uncirculated condition. They are now 33 years old and being sold for about the same price that they sold for 30 years ago! Your gain!

This handsome crown was issued on the 29th of April 2011 for the wedding of Prince William to Catherine. You have the conjoined busts of the happy couple facing right with his Grandmother, H.M. Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. These are most interesting crowns issued by the small island of Tristan da Cunha, in the most remote South Atlantic Ocean. Each crown is gold plated and individually numbered on the crown itself. The original mintage was 50,000 pieces and we believe the original issue price was £14.95. Each crown comes in protective capsule and our price is just £9.95, which is quite a bargain. Limit three per collector!

The African nation of Somalia has honoured our most beautiful coin, the Gothic Crown, on its own coinage. It has issued them in crownsized and sovereign sized, the latter in a number of different metals. With a choice Gothic Crown now bringing over £2,500 at auction, it is out of most collectors ranges. The Gothic Crown in Gold is now worth over £250,000! We can offer the crownsized Gothic Crown in Prooflike Uncirculated cupronickel. Own these handsome pieces at prices that are much more affordable. They are our most beautiful coin…
