New Stock November 2024

November is here, and so are our latest gems! Ready to elevate your collection with exclusive finds? Discover the magic of our newest additions, meticulously curated to offer nothing but the best. 

First up, we’re spotlighting the Elizabeth I Threepence, available in Fine or Very Good condition. The silver threepence of Queen Elizabeth I (1558-1603), first minted at the Tower mint in 1561, was part of her broader effort to reform England’s currency and stabilise the economy following the monetary debasements of her father – Henry VIII. They were amongst the first British coins to feature dates and therefore, like the sixpences are popular with collectors. They are at least 442 years old. 

Next is the Victoria, Godless Florin 1849 Fine! Britain's first step towards decimalisation, these rare coins sparked controversy by omitting "Dei Gratia" (By the Grace of God), earning them the nickname "Godless Florin." Struck only from 1849 to 1851, they represent a monumental shift in British currency that paved the way for the decimal system we know today. 

Our third feature follows on with Victoria, Farthing, 1888, Choice Brilliant Uncirculated,and these coins are some of the finest examples that we have ever seen. They are fantastic for any type collection, they will really stand out and draw attention. There are a very small number available.

In addition to these exciting new coins, we also invite you to explore our wide range of collectables, including British, world, hammered, and ancient coins, coin sets, patina/reproductions, medals and stamps.

Falkand Islands, 50 Pence (History of British Coins Charles II Guinea) 2001_rev

Falkand Islands, 50 Pence (History of British Coins - Charles II Guinea) 2001

Charles II ruled from 1660-1685. This 2001 silver proof 50 Pence from the Falkland Islands has a replica of his Gold Guinea on it. Guinea is gold plated so that it can stand out. The mintage was very low and our collectors on the Falklands had never even seen one. But they not only issued it in Proof Sterling Silver but in Piedfort or double the normal thickness in Proof Sterling Silver. We bought them from the man who had them struck and all he could say was that the mintage was very low. Today a silver piedfort from the Royal Mint costs £155, these are much lower mintage and much lower price. Supplies are very limited!

Fiji 1952 & 1954 Halfpennies Gem Unc_main

Fiji 1952 & 1954 Halfpennies Gem Unc

The South Pacific island of Fiji became a British Colony in 1874 but didn’t have its own offi cial currency for another 60 years, when the first coinage was struck for the island at the Royal Mint in 1934. This was a very limited issue consisting of just the halfpenny, penny and shilling denominations which was followed in 1935 by the fl orin. Of course, George V died in 1936 so a new coinage was prepared in the name of George VI. In 1952, George VI also died and coins in the name of Elizabeth II were struck and began to circulate. Fiji fi nally gained its independence from the UK in 1970 and began issuing its own coinage and all of the old coinage was removed from circulation. We can offer here the very last Halfpenny struck under George VI in 1952 and the only Halfpenny struck under Elizabeth in 1954. Both coins are scarce but, even better, we can offer them in Gem Brilliant Uncirculated condition.

George III, Penny 1806-7 Fine_obv

George III, Penny 1806-7 Fine

The 1806 George III penny was part of a broader recoinage initiated to combat counterfeiting and improve the quality of British coinage. Made from copper, it weighed 18.9 grams and had a diameter of 34mm, making it larger than later pennies. The obverse featured a mature bust of King George III, designed by Conrad Küchler, the reverse depicts a seated Britannia, holding a shield and trident, symbolising Britain's maritime strength. These pennies was one of the last large pennies before the switch to bronze in 1860. It circulated widely due to its durability and became a standard for British coinage during the period.

George III, Sixpence, 1787 Fine_obv

George III, Sixpence, 1787 Fine

The 1787 sixpences issued by the Bank of England were special coins struck as part of a broader initiative to provide smaller silver currency during a time of coin shortages. These coins featured the portrait of King George III on the obverse and a crowned shield of arms on the reverse. Unlike earlier sixpences, these were not produced for general circulation but were primarily intended as presentation pieces, sometimes given as gifts or keepsakes. They are notable for their fine craftsmanship. By 1787, coin production had already moved to the nearby Royal Mint, which was then located at the Tower Hill site in London. Some of the 1787 sixpences were taken to Australia, as British currency was used in the early colonial period. When the First Fleet arrived in Australia in 1788, there was a shortage of official currency, so various British coins, including these sixpences, circulated alongside foreign currency and barter systems. The 1787 sixpence would have been among the coins used by early settlers and convicts
