British Gold 5 pound coin of 1887

Jubilee year struck 40 gram gold monster coin

The gold 5 pound crown was the pinnacle spending money of high society in Victorian England- a bit like a platinum card is today, this was the original 'gold card' (literally) that got you through the doors of high society.

Nowadays they are the jewel in the crown of any serious collector of gold or Victorian coins. And not only that they have a high intrinsic gold value being 40 grams of solid 22 carat gold.

This piece is in about EF grade with the usual surface scratches associated with such a soft metal coin, however a nice absence of edge knocks and not any wear makes it a good investment.

The last of these coins for sale at auction on eBay at this auction fetched 745 pounds this week and our reserve is set sensibly below that. Of course gold continues to rise so by the end of the auction this coin may be worth more than it is now.....

Due to the high cash gold content, we are only able to take cash in the bank or a cheque on this item (Paypal surcharges and ebay fees just eat away at our margin too much) Or cash on collection, please email us first.

We will only post this special delivery due to its value.

Please don't be afraid of us or getting ripped off, we are a POWERSELLER!
