 Victoria, Old Head Half Sovereign
£245.00 (CVZ2000) Diameter: 19.30 mm approx Here we present the Victorian Old Head Half Sovereign, the Half Sovereign is much scarcer than the full Sovereign. Both were struck in 22ct by the Royal Mint. It is just that the Half Sovereign was the least expensive Gold coin struck at the time. The Victorian Half Sovereign features the veiled or Old Head portrait of H. M. Queen Victoria on the obverse and St. George slaying the dragon on the Reverse. These gold coins were actually used in day-to-day transactions. The coins on offer are in Fine condition and were minted between 1893-1901. These are important type coins and of course, the Half Sovereign is a scarce denomination. Dates will be of our choice, but supplies are limited. CLICK HERE HALF SOVEREIGN SEE ALL BRITISH COINS

 George V, Halfcrown Fine, 1914
£29.95 (CGH5017) Diameter: 19.4 mm approx. each This Sterling Silver Halfcrown was issued during the first year of World War I, 1914. It was the largest silver coin struck at the time, as no crown for George V would be issued until 1927. You have the bare head of the King facing left and the reverse has the crowned arms within a wreath. All British coins until and including 1919 were struck in Sterling Silver. The coins on offer are in Fine condition and 1914 is not the easiest date to find. This is an interesting coin, an interesting date and one of the last coins from this country to be struck in Sterling Silver.

 Postumus A.D. 260-269, Billon Silver Antoninianus, Extremely Fine
£49.50 (APB0044) Diameter: 21.00 mm approx. Postumus was the governor of Germany in A.D. 260; he successfully defeated an invasion by barbarian raiding parties in which the Emperor Saloninus, son of Gallienus, had been powerless to resist. Postumus was then proclaimed emperor by his troops and immediately turned on Saloninus, capturing and executing the young emperor. He managed to push the invading barbarians out of the western provinces and re-established the old Rhine frontier. Gallienus failed to defeat him so the rebel Postumus was left in control of Britain, Gaul, and Iberia. This formed what was called the ‘Gallic Empire’. In A.D.2 69, Laelianus the governor of Germany rebelled and was defeated at the siege of Mainz. But Postumus was murdered by his own troops for refusing to allow them to plunder the city. Postumus minted coins that had, at least, twice as much silver than the coins being made by the Gallienus’ central government in Rome! We offer these Billon Silver Antoninianus of Postumus, with various reverses, in an Extremely Fine condition for this rebel issue. Remember though, they were minted in a time of crisis, so some will have some weaker sections. As always, the first to order will get the best ones!

 Australia, George V, Silver Set
£34.50 (FAU2100) Australia did not have its own silver coins until King Edward VII and then that was for only one year: 1910. It wasn’t until 1911 that silver coins were struck under King George V on a regular basis. It has taken us two years to put these type sets. As they are type sets together, the dates within each set will vary, but they were all struck between 1911-1936 and they were all struck in good Silver. The coins are Threepence, Sixpence, Shilling and Florin all George V and all silver. The coins will grade Very Good and are in collectable condition.

 Romania, Pattern Equestrian Olympics Copper Piedfort
£27.50 (IRM9926) Diameter: 21.00 mm approx. One of the oldest mints in the world, the Romanian Mint made patterns for crowns they were going to issue for the Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia, United States and Nagano, Japan.
They were never issued and thus only the patterns exist. The mintage was only 125 pieces in each metal and size (i.e. single thickness or piedfort). So they are some of the RAREST Olympic coins around. We bought quite a lot of the mintage, but over the years we have sold out of many of them. CLICK HERE TO ORDER VIA OUR WEBSITE |
