Edward VIII, Crown (Wreath) 1936 Patinas

divider
The Wreath Crown was first issued in 1927 under King George V and last issued in 1936, the year of Three Kings. International Numismatic Agency decided to retro-issue a 1936 wreath crown under the new Monarch King Edward VIII. Of course, Edward was king but never had a Coronation. These are beautiful examples using the finest engravers and struck to top quality. They are in Proof condition struck in 8 different metals and only 100 pieces in each metal were ever struck. These are Rare and important, especially if you collect Wreath Crowns. Remember only 100 were struck in each metal.

The Patina series had a ‘Wreath Crown’ but dated 1937 and the mintage was 975 pieces, we quickly sold out. Last year was the 80th anniversary of The Year of Three Kings, so we are proud to offer this 1936 Patina with a much lower mintage of just 100 pieces in each metal. This crownsized beauty was struck in eight different metals and with two edges, plain and milled; here we offer you the milled-edged variant. We bought almost the entire mintage, except for four sets which went to the INA archives and to auction. The pieces are beautiful full crownsized Proofs, struck in Sterling Silver, Golden Alloy, Copper, Gold-coated Copper, Aluminium, Polished Steel, Pewter and Nickel Silver.
