Elizabeth II 1952 - 2022

Now this is coin that most people have heard of, but not all that many can own. The Quarter Sovereign was one made for the first time in 2009. We have the scarce Jody Clark 2019 in Proof condition of which they only made 2,500 coins. Our coins are complete in the Royal Mint wooden presentation case with all the original paperwork. With this low mintage it is easy to see why so many collectors are missing this coin in their collection. We have a very small number in stock and when these are gone there will be no more… This could well become one of the key coins of the series in the future.

On 29 July 1981, Prince Charles (now King Charles III) was married to Lady Diana Spencer at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, and these large Sterling Silver ‘Crowns’ were issued by the Royal Mint to mark the event. They separated in 1992 and divorced in 1996 but these coins were the first official coin to carry the portrait of our new King and the Royal Mint is now charging £90 for the new ‘Crowns’ of Charles III. The crown comes in an Official Royal Mint case with a certificate and is protected in a capsule so you can view both sides without getting your fingerprints on it.

The 1981 British crown is known as the Charles & Diana wedding crown. But,more importantly it is the last British crown that the Royal Mint ever struck. The crown (38mm) goes back to the reign of King Edward VI (1551) and this 1981 crown was the last one ever struck. You have Charles and Diana on one side and the Queen on the other side. This crown is struck in Uncirculated cupro-nickel and again was the last crown ever struck. We have a small group of covers from 1981 to commemorate the Queen’s visit to the South Woodham Ferrers on the 21st of May 1981. It also has a guide dog stamp cancelled with a large frank which reads ‘The Royal Visit to the South Woodham Ferrers Chelmsford Essex 21st May 1981’. At this price they would make excellent gifts for stamps collectors, coin collectors and lovers of dogs.

Queen Mother’s 80th Anniversary Silver Proof Crown.

In 1980 the late Queen Mother celebrated her 80th birthday. The Royal Mint issued a special commemorative crown to honour the event. It was in fact, one of the last crowns that the Mint would ever issue. You had the Queen Mother on one side and her daughter, the Queen on the other side. We can offer you this cupro-nickel crown in Uncirculated condition plus we can give a full-colour postcard issued by the Post Office showing the stamp they issued for her 80th birthday. You get the crown and the postcard, both official issues for just £3.95. Very good value for money, don't you think?

In 1977 Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her Silver Jubilee 1952-1977. The Royal Mint, as they did with her Grandfather, George V, issued a special silver commemorative crown or five-shilling piece. It shows the Queen on horseback and was very popular with the public at the time. In fact, it was probably was the height of public celebrations. The 1977 Silver Jubilee Crown in Proof Sterling Silver is one of the most popular of her reign and the best value of her entire series. Today the Mint seems to be issuing a crownsized coin almost every day. Here we offer you Proof Sterling Silver examples of the 1977 Silver Jubilee Crown with the Official Royal Mint case. Remember these silver proof crowns are now over 40 years old and are crown coins not the £5 pieces issued today. We think these silver proof crowns are real coins and not some fantasy £5 piece that has never actually been used.

In 1972 the Royal Mint issued a commemorative 25 Pence or Crown for the Queen & Prince Phillip’s 25th Wedding Anniversary. What most people don’t realise is that there were three different types issued. You have the base metal or cupronickel Crown that was issued in Uncirculated theoretically for circulation and the Sterling Silver Proof issued for collectors, but you also have a third type issued. This is the cupronickel Proof which came in the 1972 Proof Set. The type offered here is the cupronickel proof. It is a simple design with EP for Elizabeth and Phillip on one side and the Queen’s portrait on the other side. It is also the first decimal crown or 25 Pence to be struck for the Queen.
