George VI, Florin 1942 Fine_obv

George VI, Florin 1942 Fine

In 1942 in the middle of World War II our coinage was still being struck in Silver. That was because cupronickel was more useful for the War effort than Silver. This continued on until just after the War when the last silver coins were struck in 1946. We offer the King George VI Florin of 1942, the Florin is of course the second largest denomination made and the most difficult denomination to get. All coins are struck in 500 fine Silver and are in Fine condition. A World War II Florin of 1942, well worth having for yourcollection.

George VI, 1945 Florin Choice Unc_obv

George VI, Florin 1945 Choice Unc

In 1946 the Royal Mint stopped striking our coins in silver, so the 1945 issues are the penultimate silver coins to be struck. These King George VI 1945 Silver Florins are in Choice Uncirculated condition, just as nice as when they came out of the Royal Mint 78 years ago. As most collectors know, the Florin is the most difficult denomination to get, especially in the higher grades. And Choice Uncirculated is about as high a grade as you will find. These coins are Choice Uncirculated, which means a minimum number of bag marks. Treat yourself, the penultimate Silver Florin and in wonderful condition.

George VI, Florin 1947 About Unc

1947 was the first time ever the Royal Mint struck circulation coins in cupro-nickel and not silver. The most difficult denomination was the Florin. This new coinage only lasted for two years, as India got its independence, they had to change the legend in 1949. The coin on offer here is in About Uncirculated condition, which for a cupronickel coin that is now over 70 years old is very high indeed. Supplies are limited and the Florin is the most difficult denomination.

Picture of George VI, Florin Collection 1947-1951 Cupronickel

George VI, Florin Collection 1947-1951 Cupronickel

In 1947 the Royal Mint removed all Silver from our coinage and it was now to be struck in cupro-nickel. The 1947 and the 1948 issues had the normal legend on the coins, but in 1947 India became independent and so that in 1949 changed that legend. The Florin of King George VI issued in cupronickel was struck in 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950, and 1951. There were no coins struck for circulation in 1952 because that was the year that the King died. The next Florin to be issued was in 1953 for the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. We offer the complete King George VI cupronickel Florin Collection for only £12.50. They come in a snap-lock plastic bag, ready to be added to your collection, all coins are in Fine condition and you get one coin of every date 1947-1951.

George VI, Penny (Rare) 1950 Very Fine

The two lowest mintages of the old Penny coin were struck in 1950 and 1951 during the reign of King George VI. In 1950 they only made 240,000 coins that means for £1000 you could have bought all the 1950 Pennies they ever made. Until very recently numismatists have always thought that all the 1950 Pennies were shipped to Bermuda for use after World War II. Now we know that this information is wrong. They were also sent to the Bahamas in the West Indies. Now, these coins were actually used in circulation, because after the War there was a great shortage of small change. The island has a very salty atmosphere and thus the coins are very scarce in the higher grades. The coins on offer are in Very Fine condition and remember they only struck a total of 240,000 1950 Pennies for circulation.
