Lot 527: Three British Commemorative Coins, including a 1980 Great Britain 25 New Pence Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother 80th Birthday Coin
A 1980 Great Britain 25 New Pence coin, commemorating the 80th Birthday of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. This coin is presented in a rectangular plastic display case with a purple insert, featuring white text reading ‘HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH THE QUEEN 80TH BIRTHDAY AU’. The case is further marked with a yellow ‘S27′ sticker and a white ’11’ sticker on the front. The visible face of the encased coin exhibits a radiant appearance with a partially obscured central profile.
Accompanying this are two loose circular silver-colored metal coins. The first is a British or Commonwealth issue, dated ‘1977’, depicting Queen Elizabeth II on horseback and inscribed ‘ELIZABETH II D G REG F D’. The second loose coin, likely an older British Crown, features four crowned shields in a cruciform arrangement with scepters, surrounded by parts of the legend ‘FID DEF BRITT OMN REGI’ and a faintly discernible date, possibly ‘1927’ or ‘1937’.
