George V, Florin 1921 (.500 Silver) Circulated

In 1921 George V was our Monarch, Stalin was appointed General Secretary of the Communist Party, Mussolini became Prime Minister of Italy, Gandhi was arrested for sedition, and The Ottoman Empire fell after 600 years.

The first female Senator was elected in the United States, and the British Empire covered 1/4 of the world.

Show them to your friends - they will be amazed that you have 100-year old coins in your possession. You can have any or all the coins from 1921, which today are officially antique coins.

Elizabeth II, Florin 1967 Brilliant Unc

Elizabeth II, The Last 1967 Florin. Brilliant Uncirculated. In 1967 the Royal Mint issued its last ever Florin for circulation. Although it had an exact decimal equivalent, the 10p, they decided to stop making them. As most collectors know the florin is the most difficult of the denominations to get. We can offer the last ever, the 1967 Florin in Brilliant Uncirculated condition for just £4.00. At one time a number of years ago, we had to pay that price to get them. But a fortunate find, in our basement, allows us to offer them to you. Limit of three coins per collector and well worth having.

Picture of Elizabeth II, £2 1998 Proof Sterling Silver

Elizabeth II, £2 1998 Proof Sterling Silver

In 1997 the Royal Mint changed the Two Pound Piece. They made it smaller and they also made it bimetallic and as with all new designs or types, collectors put them away. Come the next year and 1998 was almost forgotten by collectors. The coin on offer is the collector’s version of the circulating £2 of 1998, but struck in Proof Sterling Silver. To make the coin look like a bi-metallic coin, they gold plated the rim of the coin, so you see gold and silver, similar colours to the circulating issue. We have found that this 1998 Silver Proof £2 is not an easy coin to find and many collectors are missing it in their collections. An interesting coin almost forgotten by collectors and the price is right.

George V, Threepence (.500 silver) 1920 Circulated

In 1920 the Royal Mint reduced the silver content from Sterlimng Silver (925 parts fine) to 500 parts fine silver. Something that would last until 1946 when all silver would be removed from our coins. The silver threepence or Joey was the smallest silver coin issued for George V and the first to be struck in 500 fine silver.
