I did know, and I think it's an interesting innovative design! :) Very much unlike the new Swedish coins :-(

I guess the obvious question here should be, are there holders for these coins in the correct pattern as shown above? If not that's one of the first things I'm going to use my future 3D-printer for! :)

There are Royal Mint ones, but the details don't line up.  :snif:

Awesome, someone should make a case that the details line up, and fill in, you could make a bundle$$$
Taking a break from swapping for a while, but still interested in pre 1799 Spanish coins, I will make time for that!

Looking for pre 1783 coins

I have 2p and 5p. Can put them aside for you if you're planning a trip to CC&C any time soon(ish).

Does anybody know where to find the complete picture of the royal shield? I would have to be nearly exactly the same look as on the coins.

If you're talking about the coins that make up the shield, on the top of this page is a photo of the coins put together.

This is an image of the shield used on the coins.
