Here's a few crowns I've been picking up lately. The set consists of 18, I have only 7 currently. The reverse are different on some. They are to celebrate the 'Golden Age Of Steam' & issued by The Royal Mint. Because my job is that of train driver ( locomotive engineer to our American friends ) they quite took my fancy. Material is sterling silver with 22ct gold plate.

I fixed you up casey. The problem was the file names. Parentheses and spaces in file names are very bad.

Filenames....

Spaces are bad, and will sometimes break images.

Parentheses are evil, and will always break images.

You had both.
Rest in Peace

My grandfather was an engineer for nearly 40 years. Wish I had the money to buy those coins!

Very nice coins indeed.

Just one thing I'd like to point out about the coin faces.

The OBVERSE is the side with the Monarch's effigy in this case Queen Elizabeth II.

The REVERSE is the theme side and opposite side to the Monarch's effigy.
