Limited Edition - Wives of Henry VIII Ultimate 50p Coin Cover

SIX New 50p Coins, One Ultimate Cover

A set of six official 50p coins have just been released under authorisation from Buckingham Palace.

Stepping into history's most dramatic chapter, the coins depict the women behind England's most ruthless king, Henry VIII - his SIX wives.  

Limited Edition – One-Day-Only Cover

Each coin is struck to a collector quality Brilliant Uncirculated finish and just 495 BU 50p coin sets were reserved for this one-day-only postmarked cover.

Mounted alongside your 50p coins is an iconic 2009 Henry VIII 1st Class Stamp issued to mark 500 years since the start of history's most notorious reign. And each cover has been officially postmarked by Royal Mail with the date 12th October – the birth of Henry’s long-awaited son and heir, Edward VI.

With the date behind us, no more can ever be produced. That makes this the most limited way to own the new Wives of Henry VIII BU 50p Coins.

This chapter of Tudor history is by far the most infamous and disreputable of them all, impacting the religious and political landscape of our country forevermore.

As such, the response from collectors and non-collectors alike is already proving to be phenomenal.

Indeed, in just a short pre-release window, the colour BU specification of these coins SOLD OUT entirely.
