<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aidan Work, post: 29542, member: 1824&quot;]AuldFartte,Lundy is actually a real place.It is an island that is part of the County of Devonshire,which is in England.Martin Coles Harman issued these coins to assert his declaration as the &#039;King of Lundy&#039;.I have got a pair of the 1929&#039;s.The 1965&#039;s were issued to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of Martin Coles Harman&#039;s purchase of Lundy.Martin Coles Harman died in 1954.His children were squabbling over the ownership until Lundy was sold to a British millionaire in 1969 for a price of 150,000 Pounds.He promptly gave the island to the British people.Both the 1929&#039;s &amp; the 1965&#039;s are listed in one of the Coincraft catalogues.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
