United Kingdom. George VI. 1 Crown 1951 - NGC PL64

GREAT BRITAIN. London. 1 Crown. 1951. George VI (1936–1952). - Value: 1 Crown. - Year: 1951. - Reign: George VI (1936–1952). - Inscriptions: Obverse: GEORGIVS VI D:G:BR:OMN:REX F:D:. Reverse: 1951. - Grade: PL64 (NGC) Issued to commemorate the Festival of Britain of 1951, this piece shows on the obverse the portrait of King George VI, while on the reverse appears the classic depiction of Saint George slaying the dragon, by Benedetto Pistrucci. This coin was the last crown (five shillings) issued during the reign of George VI and also the last before the restart of crown designs after his death. It exhibits a notable prooflike quality, with bright luster and well-defined details. Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
