1951 Festival of Britain Commemortive Crown. 28.28 g, 5 shillings coin in original red box with pamphlet. Box has some wear. Pamphlet reads: FESTIVAL OF BRITAIN CROWN PIECE, The first English Silver Crown piece was minted in 1551. Four hundred years later, on the occasion of the Festival of Britain, the Royal Mint has issued a Crown piece, bearing on its edge the Latin inscription MDCCCLI CIVIUM INDUSTRIA FLORET CIVITAS MCMLI - 1851 By the industry of its people the State flourishes 1951. Nice example.
