The Queen Victoria Half Crown Portrait Set

To own a Victorian coin is to own a real piece of history - a coin that has really lived and has a story to tell.

This set of original Silver Half Crowns tells the story of three of the faces of Queen Victoria - the obverse designs that dominated her coinage during her 64 year reign.

Three original Victorian Silver Half Crowns

Each set contains three silver half crowns, each with a different portrait of Queen Victoria, these include:

  • Young Head - The Young Head design by William Wyon graced most of Queen Victoria's coinage, and is the longest circulating portrait to feature on British coins.

  • Jubilee Head - In 1887, Joseph Boehm was commissioned to produce a new portrait of Queen Victoria to mark her Golden Jubilee.

  • Veiled Head - Thomas Brock's Old Head portrait was issued in 1893, representing a graceful Queen in her old age.

Limited Availability

These coins are well over 100 years old, and with every year passing they become even harder to find - making the limited stock of the Queen Victoria Silver Half Crown Portrait set very scarce indeed.

Each coin has been carefully selected and is presented in a deluxe presentation case along with Certificate of Authenticity.
