Cyprus, Victoria, 18 piastres 1901 Fine

In the latest of our series of Cypriot coins issued when it was part of the British Empire, we can now offer you the 18-piastre coin of Queen Victoria. It was only issued in 1901, the last year of her reign, so relatively few were struck. The obverse shows a crowned and veiled image of the queen facing left, while the reverse shows the Lusignan lion, a symbol of the old French dynasty that ruled over Jerusalem, Cyprus and Lesser Armenia at the time of the Crusades. These magnificent silver coins come in Fine condition.
