My friend just got her 2006 Guernsey 80th Birthday of QE II silver coin. It shows Windsor Castle on fire but also shows a flower. The leaflet accompanying the coin has no information about the coin's design. What flower is shown on this coin ? I have had no luck finding the coin on any website and I am unable to post a photo of the coin.
Myron, Can you post a pic of this coin? I like the Guernsey coins with cows (Guernsey cow). I was raised on a dairy and collect coins with cows.
My catalog does not have the coin; could it possibly be one of (or similar to) these? http://www.westminstercollection.com/pc_9587.htm (Jersey, colored) http://www.westminstercollection.com/pc_1716.htm (Guernsey, CuNi version) Christian
Can't Post Sorry but I can't post a photo of this 80th Birthday Guernsey Coin. It's similar to the coins you showed but has a scene of Windsor Castle with a flower in the foreground. It is a Crown denomination and dated 2006. It is part of thye set of the Queen's 80th Birthday coins. It was sent by the British Royal Mint.
