Thanks, Joe! Very interesting story. I didn't even know they made Edward VIII coins.

Of course, tyrant is a bit of an exaggeration for the modern constitutional monarchs of the UK, who have no real power. However, the point is well taken.

I agree, pics would be great!
What still blows my mind is that this, the largest and most expensive private collection in the world, still is probably worth less than a single "modernist art" paint splattered on a canvas!
