Sir Winston Churchill died in January 1965 at the age of ninety. A holder of most cabinet posts during his political career but remembered as the Prime Minister of Britain during Word War II when he seemed to put into words the thoughts of the nation. In his honour a new crown was issued which shows his portrait, the first time a commoner had featured on a British coin! The set contains nine coins, namely: Crown, Halfcrown, Florin, English and Scottish Shilling, Sixpence, Threepence, penny and Halfpenny. All the coins are dated 1965 and all are in fine or better condition. The stamps are in mint condition as issued. The item is housed in a display/protection case with an information card backing (in either red or blue). The set can be removed from the case for framing if so desired. This is a fantastic item that would make a great gift for a Churchill fan/collector or a coin/stamp collector and is ideal for display.
