New Stock May 2024
The latest stock for May has arrived, featuring the Richard I Silver Penny, available in two conditions: Very Good and Fine. The only coins from his rule are the shortcross pennies, which are rare due to his brief reign from 1189-1199. Additionally, we have the George IV Halfpenny, offered in three different conditions: Fair, Very Good, and Fine. These were minted in Copper for just three years (1825-1827), making them a rare find in many collections. Moreover, we present the 1999 Deluxe Proof Set. That year, the Royal Mint released a commemorative £5 coin in honour of Diana, Princess of Wales, who passed away in 1997. This is a highly significant set.
Alongside these thrilling new coins, we encourage you to delve into our extensive collection of collectibles. Our offerings include British coins, ancient, hammered and medieval pieces, world coins, proof sets, coin covers, stamps, and medals.

1994 50p D-Day Piedfort
In 1994, the Royal Mint commemorated the 50th anniversary of D-Day with this new 50 pence coin, just as we are celebrating the 80th anniversary today. We have these coins in all of the strikes made at the time and some are now quite difficult to get and are in short supply.

1999 Deluxe Proof Set
In 1999 the Royal Mint issued a commemorative £5 for the death of Diana Princess of Wales in 1997. In fact you have the portrait of Diana on one side and her ex-mother-in-law on the other side. We are not sure that it pleased the Queen all that much, but it had to be done! Each Proof Set contains the 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1, £2 and £5. The £2 is a commemorative for the Rugby World Cup and the £5 is the Diana commemorative, so it makes it a very interesting set. Also, and very importantly, the 10p and the £1 coins were not issued for circulation. So if you need either of these, you need to break up a set. As many collectors are trying to complete their Pound collection, this is a very important set.

2005 50p Dictionary Silver Piedfort
In 2005 the Royal Mint issued a commemorative 50 Pence to honour the 250th anniversary of Samuel Johnson’s Dictionary of the English Language. Without this momentous work, we wouldn’t know what a lot of words mean today. You have a series of words on one side with the inscription ‘Johnson’s Dictionary 1755’. The other side has a portrait of H.M. the Queen and this coin is struck in Proof Sterling Silver. This is also a coin that is missing from many collections, especially in Silver. Supplies are limited and we believe that our price for this older and very important commemorative coin is less than the Royal Mint will be charging for this year’s commemorative.

Aspron Trachy of Isaac II Angelos
Born in 1156 A.D., Isaac II Angelos was Byzantine Emperor from 1185 to 1195 and briefly in 1203. He ascended to the throne during a period of intense political upheaval, confronting challenges from both internal dissent and external pressures. Isaac grappled with the formidable Fourth Crusade and the intricate diplomacy required in dealing with the Latin West. His rule was marred by political unrest, uprisings, and military setbacks. Despite the adversities he confronted, Isaac II Angelos remains a compelling figure in Byzantine history. We are offering these Aspron trachy from his reign in “Fine” grade which have a green patina, the obverse has the Virgin Mary and the reverse Isaac II. PLEASE NOTE: Photography is representative of the coin supplied

Billon Tanka of Firoz Shah Tughluq
Firoz Shah Tughluq was 42 when he became Sultan of Delhi in 1351 and he ruled until 1388. Much of what we know about him comes from his 32-page autobiography, titled Futuhat-e-fi rozshahi. He faced many rebellions at the start of his reign but he worked to improve the infrastructure of the empire building hospitals, canals, reservoirs and wells. He founded several cities around Delhi, including Jaunpur, Firozpur, Hissar, Firozabad, Fatehabad. We have just bought a small group of these billon (debased silver) Tankas from his reign.
