[QUOTE="GregH, post: 4999722, member: 75936"]I’m compiling a one-per-British-ruler portrait collection from 1066 onwards. For the 19th and 20th centuries I’ve been able to obtain some lovely crowns at a decent price, and I’d love to have a fine style Edward VIII crown to fill a gap in my collection. Unfortunately the genuine coins with Edward VIII portraits (which are all patterns) are a little out of my price range, so that leaves fantasy coins. Almost all of the Ed VIII fantasies I’ve found are proof-like or uncirculated base metal pieces that look like they were minted yesterday. They don’t have the look and feel of a genuine 30s coin like the Art Deco style George V “rocking horse” crown. So my question is - what Ed VIII fantasy coin do you think is the best one? Show me your fantasies! :)[/QUOTE]
