Comments

Mennica Królewska opisała koronę Churchilla jako "jedną z najtrudniejszych w historii". Każda miedzioniklowa korona musiała zostać wybita przez dwie niezwykle ciężkie prasy, jedną o wadze 250 ton i drugą o wadze 360 ton. Mennica Królewska musiała usunąć niektóre szczegóły, takie jak małe inicjały Nemona po lewej stronie głowy. Płaskorzeźba była bardziej płaska niż zamierzał rzeźbiarz, a Nemon nie był zadowolony z rezultatu. Inicjały pozostały na egzemplarzu VIP, a nakład nie jest znany.

Standardowa waga tych monet wynosiła 10/11 uncji trojańskich (436,4 grama). Zgodnie z ustawą o monetach z 1946 roku, skład zmienił się z .500 srebra na .750 miedzi / .250 niklu, ale waga pozostała niezmieniona.

Poniżej znajduje się fragment Dziewięćdziesiątego Szóstego Raportu Rocznego Zastępcy Mistrza i Kontrolera Mennicy Królewskiej z 20 lipca 1966 roku:

"Publiczna dystrybucja rozpoczęła się 11 października 1965 roku. Po konsultacjach z bankami priorytetowo potraktowano zamówienia zagraniczne, w szczególności na kontynencie północnoamerykańskim. Do końca listopada około 3 milionów koron zostało wysłanych za granicę, a następnie dostawy dla Wielkiej Brytanii stały się bardziej obfite.


Moneta jest monetą Królestwa. Korony są ciężkimi kawałkami metalu i z tego powodu zazwyczaj nie są dobrze przyjmowane jako pieniądze. Rzeczywiście, suma wybita do końca marca 1966 roku była około trzy razy większa niż poprzednia najwyższa emisja koron. Niemniej jednak byłoby miło, gdyby obieg Korony Churchilla jako monety królestwa utrzymał się przez jakiś czas. Znam ludzi, którzy używają jej swobodnie i mogę krótko zacytować Daily Telegraph: "Masywny brzęk kilku tych monet w mojej kieszeni ma o wiele bardziej krzepiący efekt niż jakikolwiek stary, szmatławy banknot dziesięciorublowy ... czy nie jest lepszym pomnikiem dla Churchilla posiadanie jego monety łatwo poruszającej się w uczciwym biznesie wolnego królestwa?".

Moneta została wyemitowana wraz z monetą o nominale 5 funtów w zestawie 2 monet w 2015 roku, aby upamiętnić 50. rocznicę śmierci Churchilla. Monety z zestawu z 2015 roku pochodziły z rynku wtórnego, a ich sprzedaż wyniosła 4 987 sztuk.
