1951 is the year my British collection comes alive. Look at this Proof Florin!  And a high grade Sixpence  AU if not UNC The ubiquitous Crown  The Festival of Britain lasted from May to October 1951 and was a morale booster after years of wartime and post war austerity. Exhibits looked to the future and in addition to stamps (High and low values) we got coins, the Skylon needle and the one survivor the Royal Festival Hall. The crowns struck in Cupronickel used a 1899 die of St George and The Dragon with the date "1951" struck on them. They came in purple and green boxes and the edge had "MDCCLI CIVIUM INDUSTRIA FLORET CIVITAS MCMLI " which meant the flourishing of industry with population and a centennial of the great 1851 Exhibition.  A piece of paper in these boxes also saluted the 400th anniversary of the first silver English crown in 1551. NZ and Aussie coins soon!
