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.
Make sure not to miss out, as there is limited stock availability!
Perikles was the last known independent dynast of Lycia who ruled from 375-362 BC. He is mostly known from his coinage and inscriptions found in the region. Lycia is located in what is modern day Antalya, Turkey, where a monumental tomb was built in his honour and decorated with friezes showing Pericles going to war. Several of these friezes are preserved in the Antalya Archaeological Museum. We have a small number of these silver 1/3 Staters from his reign showing a lion's scalp on the obverse and a triskeles on the reverse with his name in Lycian script. Offered in Extremely Fine condition.
This 1939 20c Malay coin was issued during World War II. A very interesting coin. Supplies are very limited and it carries the portrait of a British Monarch. Struck in Silver and offered in Very Fine.
A rare uniface pattern Euro Sets. We offer the Maltese collection. But only 50 of you can ever own one! Each collection contains 16 uniface pieces each struck on an oversized planchet, one for the obverse and one for the reverse. You get the 1 & 2 Euro sizes plus the 50c, 20c, 10c, 5c, 2c and 1c sizes. As it appears that they are going to stop making 1c and 2c coins these rare sets are even more exciting. These oversized pieces are struck in Proof condition marked ‘Trial, Probe, Essai, Prueba’ to show that they are patterns. Each set has 16 pieces in it and that works out to not a lot of money per piece and they only made 50 collections! Please, if you want one get in quickly.

Our loss is your gain, fantastic value at just £3.95 each, supplies are limited!
The 2003 Brilliant Uncirculated Mint Set of coins is one of the elusive sets in the series, we haven’t offered this set for over 12 years but we have just about built up enough stock to be able to offer them again. The set consists of 10 coins with the regular currency 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1 and £2 plus the 50p Suffragettes commemorative and the £2 DNA Double Helix commemorative. The coins come in the offi cial Royal Mint presentation folder and, of course, as you know, these coins are really better than uncirculated and are more like specimens because they didn’t go into the enormous hoppers and get sent off to banks in sacks like the regular circulation coins so these really are as good as you can get.

This is a beautiful and striking medallion issued to remember those who fought at the Omaha landing and didn’t make it. The obverse has a soldier saluting with a smaller soldier in the background advancing. The red, white and blue American flag is in full colour. The reverse shows a cross in the American Cemetery with the following ‘Here rests in honored glory a comrade in arms known but to God’. All inset on a full colour American flag. It has been gold coloured and the juxtaposition of the colours with the gold colour is most striking. A beautiful piece to own or give as a gift. Complete with a clear plastic capsule to protect it.
The Paraguayan guarani has been the country’s currency since 1944, but it is also one of the least valued in the Americas.

Minted in Chile, the 1 and 5 guarani coins are FAO commemoratives and show the image of a soldier and a woman in traditional dress, while the 10 guarani coins commemorates the officer and diplomat who fought in the Chaco War with Bolivia, and the 50 guarani commemorates former President Jose Felix Estigarribia who was killed in an plane crash in 1940
