[QUOTE="Zohar444, post: 729923, member: 13450"]Edward VIII was King for only 10 months in 1936 and none of his coins were issued for circulation. One original Crown has come up for sale and it sold for about £65,000! In 1955 the dealer Hearn created a crown sized piece of what Edward's coinage might have looked like, had he not abdicated. [IMG]http://i324.photobucket.com/albums/k353/Zohar444/1936-O-horz.jpg[/IMG] On the obverse is the uncrowned bust of the King and on the reverse coins from the British Mandate of Palestine.
