Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, KB (29 September 1758 – 21 October 1805) was an English admiral famous for his participation in the Napoleonic Wars, most notably in the Battle of Trafalgar, where he lost his life. It was as a result of these wars that he became the greatest naval hero in the history of the United Kingdom. This uncirculated legal tender crown issued by authority of the Falkland Islands would be a striking addition to any collection of nautical or world coins.
