Couple of crowns and a shilling, I'm not sure I like the version of George and the dragon... but a cheap way to add to the collection

I've not seen that design of the crown before; it's certainly Art Deco! I wonder if, in a few short years after it was minted, the style began to look a little... Fascist!

The 1st coin is nicknamed the rocking horse crown.

I got the two crowns for £26, which I am happy with
The Sixpence was just over £10, again I am reasonably happy with it.

I had seen this called the rocking horse before in a prior post. (A Post where a member appeared to take offence to Peters Strict grading/ valuation). BTW Peter, I like and value your opinion on UK coins because you have snapped me out of the 'over grading' beginner faze quite early on and saved me some dollar.

Ben, you are welcome to it if you want it, just drop me a line if you do

The reason I'm not keen on the rocking horse is, it just looks like a fairground token from the pics, not had one in my hand so maybe it will look nicer in the flesh
