Tristan da Cunha, Diamond Jubilee Old Soldiers

Here is a wonderful crown issued by TDC (Tristan da Cunha) for the Diamond Jubilee of H. M. Queen Elizabeth II in 2012. They are full crownsized, plated in gold and have a full colour photo on the obverse. Our supplies are very limited.

This beautiful Crown was issued in 2011 for Queen Elizabeth II’s 85th birthday. You have the conjoined busts of H. M. Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip on the reverse and H.M. Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. It is full crown-sized and has been gold plated before striking to make it even more beautiful. It says it all really with the inscription ‘Royal Birthday Commemoration’ ‘2011’ and ‘One Crown’. It is in Proof condition and comes in a protective capsule to protect the coin.

This is one Olympic coin or crown you almost never see. It was issued by the Republic of the Congo in 1999, for the Sydney, Australia Olympics held in 2000. You have a shot putter getting ready for the throw with a Greek God to his side. The other side has a native figure holding up a tablet like the 10 Commandments reading ‘Unite Travail Progress’. It is full crownsized and has the denomination of 100 Francs and is struck in Uncirculated cupronickel. There were quite a few Olympic coins issued over the years, but this is one that you almost never see. Get it while you can, after all the Olympics are quickly coming up…
