Canada, 1964 50c

In 1964 Canada still issued the 10 Cents, 25 Cents, 50 Cents and Dollar in Silver for general usage. They didn’t make Proof Sets but rather they called them Prooflike Sets. We have some of the 1964 Prooflike Silver Sets with the Charlottetown commemorative silver dollar. All the coins are in Prooflike Specimen condition. We are going to offer the coins separately; here we offer the 1964 25c. Remember that the coins are now 55 years old and struck in silver.

The first Irish Threepence was issued in 1928 when it’s first coinage was struck. The last of the Decimal Irish coinage was in 1968. This Threepence is dated 1968 and in Uncirculated condition. You have an Irish hare on one side and an Irish Harp on the other side. 1968 was the date of the last ever Irish Threepence and the coins on offer are in Uncirculated condition, something you will not find in Ireland these days.

In 1949 it was proposed that King George VI would visit New Zealand, but it never happened! This was a bit of a problem as the New Zealand Government had gone to the trouble of issuing a Silver Crown! This is the ONLY New Zealand Crown for King George VI. It has the bare head of the King on one side and a Silver Fern on the other. Struck in 500 fine Silver in 1949, it has a mintage of only 200,000 pieces. We can offer the ONLY George VI Silver Crown of New Zealand in Good Extremely Fine condition. It is a very difficult crown to get and this one piece represents a complete type denomination of this Monarch for this country.
