The Royal Mint did not produce any Crown (Five Shilling) coins from 1903 to 1926 inclusive, Proof, pattern or otherwise.

It is quite unusual that no 1911 Crown was produced since it was the Coronation year of George V.

All British "silver" coins minted prior to 1920 contained 92.5% silver.

There was a silver Proof FDC Halfcrown coin minted in 1911.

What is the correct weight for an 1847 British gothic Crown?

How much is a 1879 silver pattern crown. Queen Victoria bust facing left and St George on ther side?

The Royal Mint did not produce any Crown coins for circulation from 1848 to 1886 inclusive. A British 1879 sterling silver Crown (Five Shillings)(Victoria - young head)(Proof FDC), is excessively rare and could fetch a very high price if it remains in mint condition. I suggest you wrap the coin up and take it to a reputable coin dealer who will be able to give a valuation based on inspection and positive identification of the coin.


Did the Royal Mint strike a Georgius V silver Piedfort Crown in 1911 and if so was the Kings head on one side and a large St George and the Dragon on the reverse?

The Royal Mint did not produce any British Crown (Five Shilling) coins from 1903 to 1926 inclusive, either circulation, Proof, Proof FDC, Piedfort, etc. If the Royal Mint had produced a Crown coin in 1911, the year of the Coronation of King George V, it would have had King George V on the obverse and possibly a more regal or even personalised design on the reverse, as has been done on the Coronation of other British Monarchs. There is however, an excellent possiblity that a Crown-like souvenir medallion, token or medallette was produced in quantity for the Coronation.


One 1900 silver crown one 1935 silver crown one 1890 silver crown?

These coins vary in silver content. The 1890 and 1900 crowns are .925 silver and have a scrap value of around £15 each. If they are in high grade then they could be worth as much as £150 - £250. The 1900 crown was the last to be struck in the reign of Queen Victoria. It has a REGNAL YEAR on the edge which can either be LXIII or LXIV (this is the number of years Victoria had reigned as Queen in Roman Numerals). The LXIII is the rarer of the two varieties. The 1935 crown was struck in 0.500 silver (half silver) and was struck in relatively large numbers (over 700,000) to commemorate the 25th annivesary of King George 5th's reign with Queen Mary. They are also known as the 'Rocking Horse' crown with the strong art deco influence (a remake of the Benedetto Pistrucci's original St George slaying the dragon). Value would be around £10 - £20 GBP depending on condition. There are a small number (2,500) of 1935 crowns with a RAISED EDGE. These are PROOF coins and were issued in boxes - they can make £500 - £600 GBP (2012 values).

Should you buy a silver proof set or a proof set?

It depends on your preference. A silver proof set contains coins made of 90% silver, while a regular proof set does not. Silver proof sets tend to have a higher intrinsic value due to the silver content, but they may also come at a higher cost compared to regular proof sets.

How much are Gibraltar Crown coins worth?

Gibraltar has produced a "Crown" coin in most years since 1967. They are produced as a commemorative coin and often more than one type in each year. They are made variously from the usual cupro-nickel alloy, silver and gold, and usually as a Proof coin. The value of any Crown would be dependent on the year, condition, whether of not the coin is Proof, and what metal it is made from.
