TURKS & CAICOS ISLANDS:  2 x Proof Coins in capsules + certificates - top grades  (my ref. #i39)

2000 "Millenium" Proof 25 Crowns: This very unusual "dual bonded" coin has a copper alloy core with 1/30th of a troy ounce of 14 carat gold bonded to the reverse and 1/30th of a troy ounce of .999 fine silver bonded to the obverse.  It weighs 7 grams and has a diameter of 25.40 mm.

2001 "Queen Mother's 101st Birthday" Proof 5 crowns: This coin was struck in .999 fine pure silver  it weighs 10 grams and has a diameter of 30.99 mm.

The coins are in perfect condition and each come in a capsule and blue wallet together with a certificate of authenticity giving the specifications and history.

General information:                                                                                         

I do not use coin grading terms but I provide exact images of each item to help you decide upon the condition yourself.  Please email me if you have any queries or require additional information. 

Post and packing:

I always use a jiffy bag or mail-lite envelope and all items will be well packed.  I try to keep postage and packing charges close to cost price.  I give generous discounts for multiple items.   This is calculated by weight and a number of items may cost the same as or only slightly more than a single item.  I show my normal postage terms below but please email me if you have any queries or special requirements and I will endeavour to accommodate them if this is possible and reasonable.
