” What General Weygand has called the Battle of France is over. The Battle of Britain is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization. Upon it depends our own British life, and the long continuity of our institutions and our Empire. The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us. Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this Island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, This was their finest hour.” Winston Churchill House of Commons, June18th 1940
This beautiful uncirculated Crown was issued by the government of Gibraltar to commemorate the International Year of the Ocean in 1998. Featured on the reverse of this Crown is a scene with two windsurfers plying the waves.
For years I have been trying to find enough quantities of nice, brilliant uncirculated world coins with a ship motif, and have finally succeeded. This beautiful set of coins represents fifteen different “ship” coins from fifteen different countries. The countries represented are: Cyprus, Eastern Caribbean States, Gambia, Gibraltar, Greece, Great Britain, Isle of Man, Israel, South Korea, Kuwait, Maldives, Portugal, Qatar and South Africa. This set would make a beautiful and unique gift for any young numismatist or collector of ship and/or world coins.
One of several medals issued by the United Kingdom to mark the 25th Anniversary of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Beautiful piece of exonumia that will make a nice addition to any collection of British Royal Family memorabilia.
