Tristan da Cunha, Crown 2014 (Tristão da Cunha & Ship) Silver Plated Proof

The Portuguese explorer Tristão da Cunha was born in 1460 and died in 1540. At one time he was King Manuel I’s ambassador to the Vatican under Pope Leo X. But he is best known for his antics in the Middle East and India. When in his wanderings he found a group of islands in the South Atlantic, although the weather was too rough to get off his ship, he claimed them and named one after himself. Now that island Tristan da Cunha has issued a crown to honour their discoverer. It is diamond-shaped and has H.M. Queen Elizabeth II on one side and Tristão on the other side with a sailing ship and wheel. This is heavily silver plated and struck in Proof condition. It also comes in a diamond-shaped protective capsule. If you name an island after yourself, why not have a coin made for you?

Tristan da Cunha, Crown (Ferdinand Magellan) Proof Silver Plated

Born in 1480 Ferdinand Magellan would grow up to be one of the most famous and competent Portuguese explorers. Portugal was a small country but known for the competency of its sailors. Magellan went on to live in Portuguese India or Goa for eight years before setting out to search for a passage to the Spice Islands. In 1521 he went around South America and found the Spice Island. He continued on and became the first person to circle the globe. This beautiful diamond-shaped Crown from Tristan da Cunha honours this great explorer. You have Magellan on one side with his sailing ship and steering wheel and H. M. the Queen on the other side. Each Crown is heavily silver plated, in Proof condition and comes in a diamond-shaped protective capsule. The price will also please you and if you are a ship collector, you will need this coin.
