A very nice 1866 London half sovereign. Common coin but looks to be a good grade.

Nice coin 

A maelstrom of delightful metal today.
Thank you @Ducat916 for the 5oz Gothic Crowns.  I returned to the RM and opted for a refund on my 10oz Gothic’s due to poor quality- these beautiful 5oz examples are a fantastic substitute.

The Four Generations Crown from Chards is another step nearer my Crown run 👍 
I already have a Jubilee Quarter Ounce but I couldn’t resist a PF70 graded example for only a little over issue price, at an eBay auction, not sure about the label, jury is out.
Also received is a Platinum Jubilee Silver Proof stamp cover- only 200 issued by the Royal Mint. And finally, a 1970 Proof Coin Set featuring the last issues of pre- Decimal Coinage & a lovely King George V Silver Jubilee medal.

Pricey but nice.
 

Indeed they do, just ordered one. Thanks for the heads up. 

Three more Crowns nearer to the target.  The Millennium Crowns are nuanced- one dated 1999 and the 2000 overlaid and highlights The British Isles in Gold plate.  Both with inscribed edges with the Shakespearean quote ‘What’s past is prologue’. The third Crown is the Diana memorial- another ugly looking issue, and unfortunately for me, in vogue right now and commanding a silly price tag currently.
Also a lovely 2022 Proof Half Sovereign bought on another group at a very reasonable price despite it being a 70 grade. 
And finally today I snook into town from work and found some interesting tat shop goodies- a Silver Victoria Diamond Jubilee medal and a Silver 1902 Edward VII Coronation medal, along with a George VI Coronation medal.
My favourite pick up today however, is the charming 1837 Victoria ‘To Hanover’ Copper token (known as a Cumberland Jack Token), bought for the princely some of £2.50.

From 2019 the silver proof set for the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the 50p coin into circulation in 1969. Mintage of these sets was 1969. 

One of my favorites, the Stephen Hawkin gold proof. Bought here on the Silverforum. 

The 1992-1993 UK presidency of the EU coins. 
Another one of my favorite 50p coin designs. 

The lovely Sir Isaac Newton silver proof. 

The 2011 silver proof World Wildlife Fund 50p. A really terrific Royal Mint design. 

Two Royal Mint dinosaurs. 

Here is the silver proof to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the 50p coin in 1969.  

Three Royal Mint silver bunnies. I don’t have the 2016 Peter Rabbit as it’s now too expensive but I do have the 2020 on the way. 

The new Peter Rabbit coin. Arrived in Australia this week. 

The 2nd of the Dinosaur coins, third is on the way! 

The 2018 half sovereign that went through the Trial of the Pyx.
