FREE: Coin Lot...23 Assorted Coins Mostly Foreign

Here is a little background on a couple of your coins. May increase interest, The Churchhill coin date 1965 is the last Crown value Type coin minted by the Royal Mint. In 1970 they were official changed over to the New Decimal coin type and this would last for about 10 years. During this time (in 1972) Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her 25 year anniv and a commemorative 25 New Pence was designed and minted. There were three other 25 New Pence Coins minted and this was done provide not only a commemorative for the events in 1972, 1977. 1980 and 1981. But it was an attempt to get interest in the populace for the large coin. Like the Eisenhower Dollar in the US nobody was interested. Today on some rare occasions they bring back the Crown size coin as a commemorative and it is a 5 Pound coin. Usually most commemoratives are kept to the 50 Pence, Pound and 2 Pound coins and circulate similarly to the US State quarter program. This is all in part due to the success of the Canada Coin Merchandising success. Nice coin set, best of luck with your auction

Thanks Christopher. Some of that I knew, some I didn't. Had alot more of the commemorative coins but this is pretty much all that is left of those big coins.
