    Those are some lovely Imperial Queen Victoria issues. To change things up some, my latest Queen Victoria is from India, when she was Empress. Or at least I think so - I am new to Indian coins and some of these - including this one - are tough to attribute:

    India, Jodhpur Princely State
    Æ Takka
    Queen Victoria / Takht Singh / Jaswant Singh
    n.d. (VS 1900-1930) (1843-1873 A.D.)

    Inscription [date off flan] / Inscription.
    KM 72.
    (21.10 grams / 18 x 15 mm)
    eBay July 2021

    I'm just crazy about this coin, 21 grams but only 18 mm - it is chunky!

    do you like this one? 1855 gold sovereign it looks like the year might be doubled and there is a die crack on the reverse in the top of shield. is this considered an error coin?

    Wow! Being a "good old boy" from the south, I'm was not familiar with Queen Victoria until I saw a movie about her. The actress that played her (Emily Blunt) is beautiful and played her part well. I would like to get a coin or so about her for my collection. Any idea of the best source?

    Personally, I prefer the 1838 Uma and the Lion 5 Pound gold piece but, sadly, it's just a bit beyond my price point :)
