(edit - OOPS, wrong forum - maybe moderator could put in coin-token forum)

I collect everything from Vickie to Liz, plus lots of other stuff. I got a bronze? coronation token for Eliz II back in the 60's for a dollar. While mining ebay 2000-10, I came across a better one for only $3-4, so why not. Then I found a listing for a sterling Edward VII token and somehow won it for under $20 (the other silver ones also). After that, I decided to see if I could find a nice one to put at start of the 1 cent binder of 2x2's for each monarch. Here's what I came up with.

Victoria - Almost the size of a large cent - looks like it may have been gold-plated. Found that it has a very far-off repunched Y in MAY, great for this error saver. (about $6)

Edward VII - Sterling silver, a bit larger than a silver 50 cents (31mm.).

George V - Matte finish, same size as Ed's but a bit lighter so may not be sterling (let me know).

George VI - Sterling silver, 32 mm., even got the box.

Elizabeth II - Has a few marks but has nice colouring.
