In December 2003 the Turkish parliament approved a redenomination of the country’s currency. This involved the removal of six zeros from the Turkish lira, and the creation of a new currency, which was introduced on January 1, 2005. The value of the lira had deteriorated to such an extent that the Guinness Book of Records named the Turkish lira as the world’s least valuable currency in 1995-1996, and then again between 1999 and 2004. We have put together a set of these uncirculated high denomination coins with a face value of 500,000, 750,000 and 1,000,000 lira dated 2002, which means they would have been worth just over $1 USD at the time.
Tuvalu is one of those island nations in the South Pacific that you almost never hear about. Originally it was known as Gilbert and Ellice Islands, but got its independence in 1978 as Tuvalu. The population is 11,204 and it covers just 26 square miles. In 1980 when this silver crownsized $10.00 was made the Queen was still their Monarch. This silver proof $10.00 was issued to honour the Queen Mother’s 80th birthday and it has Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. So it is Mother and Daughter. This is one coin you almost never see, it is choice Proof and struck in silver. We have just 10 examples in stock.
In November 1963 President John F. Kennedy was killed in Dallas, Texas. Most of us who are old enough to have been alive at the time remember exactly where we were when we first heard of the killing. Coincraft have issued a unique memento of this man and of his successes. We have kept the price very low in order to make this set accessible to as many collectors as possible. This set is to honour a great man and not to make a lot of money. This collection is only available from Coincraft and it makes an excellent gift to people who remember Kennedy and coin collectors all over the world. There are two unique Kennedy Half Dollars, both legal tender and both capable of being used as real money, rather than the non-circulating legal tender coins that most mints issue today. The first is a one-year type coin issued for America’s bi-centennial and it is in Proof condition, the finest quality available. The second coin is dated 2013 and was issued to honour the 50th anniversary of his death. The collection also includes a United States Kennedy stamp that has actually been used. The package includes details about what Kennedy did, such as founding the Peace Corps, launching the Moon race and fighting for civil rights. There is also a fascinating list of the similarities between the killing of Kennedy and President Lincoln. The collection is priced at just £18.95 and is priced to be given as a gift.
