Buyer's Premium:

A set of nine UK circulating and commemorative coins, all dated 1965. The collection is presented in a black plastic display case within a clear protective frame. The set includes a large cupro-nickel crown commemorating Sir Winston Churchill, a half crown, a florin, an English shilling, a Scottish shilling, a sixpence, a brass threepence, a penny, and a half penny. The obverses of the coins feature the laureate bust of Queen Elizabeth II, with the exception of the Churchill crown which depicts the statesman’s profile. The reverse designs vary by denomination and include heraldic shields, floral emblems, and the Golden Hind. The inscriptions on the coins include ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA F D and the respective denominations. The centre of the display is printed with a crowned E II R cypher and the year 1965 in white. The display case is marked with the denomination titles in white uppercase letters above each coin, and a small white dollar sign is visible in the lower-left corner of the black mount.


Condition report:

The coins exhibit varying degrees of surface wear and environmental toning. The copper penny and half penny show significant darkening and uneven tarnish to the surfaces (obverse and reverse). The brass threepence displays a dull, darkened patina. The cupro-nickel denominations, including the Churchill crown, half crown, florin, and shillings, show minor contact marks and light surface scratches. The sixpence appears heavily toned. The plastic display case and outer protective frame show light scuffing and surface wear but remain intact. The set is housed in its original clear plastic and black display mount.
