New Stock October 2024

We're delighted to unveil our latest stock for October, meticulously curated to bring fresh and invigorating options to your collection. 

This month's highlights include, George III, Bank of England Issue, Eighteen Pence, Bank Token 1811, Uncirculated. During the Napoleonic Wars, the Bank of England ordered the production of silver tokens which were issued as legal tender. These One Shilling and Sixpence (Eighteen pence) silver tokens were struck in 1811, featuring the armoured bust of George III. Take this opportunity to own a historically important piece from the Napoleonic War era.

We also have the Victoria Sixpence 1887 Wreath Choice Uncirculated,the third different sixpence of 1887, issued to stop people gold plating the sixpence and passing them off as gold coins. The reverse shows a wreath with the value spelled out, to try and stop the practice.

Furthermore, we have the Charles III, £2 2024, The Lion & The Eagle One Ounce, following on from the recent collaboration between the Royal Mint and the US Mint combining Britannia and Liberty on a one ounce coin, this new 2024 release features The Lion and The Eagle, two national icons harmoniously brought together on a new UK coin. Struck in .999 fine silver and in Brilliant Uncirculated condition straight from the Royal Mint.

In addition to these exciting new coins, we also invite you to explore our wide range of collectables, including British, world, medieval, hammered, and ancient coins, books, medals, wedding covers, tokens and pocket watches.

George VI, Penny 1945 Mint darkened Unc

It was fashionable in the 40s to put shiny new pennies in Christmas stockings, and the Mint considered this a frivolous use of valuable national resources at a time of austerity, so the Mint darkened them with thiosulphate in order to discourage the practice! We’ve been offering Post-War Pennies of George VI dated 1946 all the way through to 1950 over the last few months, hopefully you’ve taken the opportunity to compile an impressive collection? It gets difficult to find some of the War-time dates as they struck less during these troubled times, in fact between 1941 and 1943 they didn’t strike any at all. After rummaging through our vaults, we managed to find a nice group of high grade and Mint Darkened 1945 Pennies. Extend your date run of War-Time George VI pennies by adding one of these historic Mint Darkened 1945 Pennies to your collection, available in Uncirculated condition.
