Beautiful coins posted already!  My contribution for 1893 is quite humble by comparison: 1893 UK Jubilee Head threepence - the last of the Jubilee Head coins:  1893 sixpence:  1893 florin:  1893 halfcrown - not as nice as Princetane's:  1893 Crown:

So interesting that they had a Jubilee head 3d in 1893 - never knew that NumisRob - cool.
Again loving your crowns. Was it hard to get them all.
Would show a coin here, but that is all I had for 1893 - my collection definitely leans towards post 1900!

Quote: Again loving your crowns. Was it hard to get them all. Not really, although it took a while looking through dealers' trays. They turn up quite often in Fine condition. Quite a few have edge knocks. There are two Veiled Head crowns for each year from 1893-1900 because the regnal year on the edge changes. The only one I'm missing from 1887 - 1900 is the 1888 wide date variety, which seems to be very scarce. I've bid on a couple in auctions but didn't win them.

Here is a 1 Corona from Austria dated 1893 (and whizzed in the '50s or '60s when that sort of thing was fashionable):
