PCGS - Royal visits and tours are prestigious events for those who host such occasions. This is certainly no exception in the case of The Royal Mint, which hosted such a tour and subsequently created treasured rarities for the occasion. On December 13, 1937, a Royal Visit to The Royal Mint occurred. The hosted royalty included Queen Mary, consort to King George V, and her two grandchildren, Princess Elizabeth (future Queen Elizabeth II), then age 11, and Princess Margaret Rose, just seven years old. Escorted through the mint by Deputy Master of The Royal Mint, Sir Robert Johnson, the Royal Family got to witness how the coinage of Great Britain and its territories was minted. The Royal Family was taken to see special coins being struck and were presented with these very same coins.
