Rare WWII Coin Set: How Seven Wartime Coins Tell the Story of Britain in WWII
There’s something deeply powerful about holding history in your hands – the kind of tactile connection that takes you beyond textbooks and museum displays. That’s exactly the experience offered by the World War II Threepence Collector’s Frame: a rare and exclusive set of seven original British brass threepence coins, each minted during a year of global conflict that reshaped the world.
Spanning 1939 to 1945, these coins are more than currency – they’re miniature monuments to courage, endurance, and a nation’s resilience during the Second World War. And now, for a select few, they’re available to own, preserved in a premium frame that does justice to their incredible story.
Coins That Crossed the Frontlines of History
Imagine where these coins have been. Perhaps a 1940 threepence passed from a mother’s hand to her child at a train station, just before an evacuation to the countryside. Maybe a 1944 piece was used by a soldier buying a pint in a London pub before heading to the beaches of Normandy. Or a 1942 coin clinked in the pocket of a munitions factory worker during a night shift beneath the blackout blinds.
Each coin in this collection bears the effigy of King George VI, a stoic symbol of wartime leadership. And each features the twelve-sided brass design that became iconic during the war years – sturdy, unmistakable, and quintessentially British.
A Curated Tribute to a Nation’s Finest Hour
The WWII Threepence Collector’s Frame isn’t just a set of coins – it’s a story told in seven chapters. Housed in a bespoke collector’s frame adorned with evocative wartime artwork, this collection is as much a display piece as it is a historical archive.
Only 1,939 of these limited-edition frames have been authorised for worldwide release – a number carefully chosen to honour the year the war began. That rarity ensures each piece remains as exclusive as it is meaningful, appealing to both numismatists and history lovers alike.
The Perfect Commemoration for the 80th VE Day Anniversary
With the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day coming in May 2025, this is the perfect time to secure a commemorative piece that truly matters. Whether you’re a collector seeking the next centrepiece for your collection or a history enthusiast yearning for a deeper connection to the past, this frame is a rare opportunity – a moment frozen in time, cast in brass, and bound by history.
A Stunning New Chapter for Britannia: The SOLD OUT 2025 Reverse Frosted Silver Set
In the world of coin collecting, few names carry the prestige and heritage of Britannia — the enduring symbol of British strength, identity, and legacy. And now, a breathtaking new release has captured this icon like never before.
Introducing the UK 2025 Britannia Reverse Frosted Fractional Silver Proof Set, a spectacular new issue that has already made waves — and sold out — at The Royal Mint.
A Masterpiece – Four Coins, One Legacy
This remarkable set unites four fractional silver coins — the £2, 50p, 10p, and 5p — each meticulously struck in 99.9% pure silver to an exquisite proof standard with an eye-catching reverse frost finish. It’s a finish that lends a subtle yet powerful contrast, illuminating every detail of the design with remarkable clarity and elegance.
But what truly sets this set apart is the exclusive reverse design by artist Bradley Morgan Johnson — a fresh and modern interpretation of Britannia that beautifully balances innovation with tradition.
From the flowing strength of her stance to the fine detailing of her shield and trident, Britannia has never looked more regal. On the obverse, the set features the official portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Martin Jennings, further grounding this release in historic significance.
Only 450 Worldwide – A Strictly Limited Edition
In an extraordinary show of exclusivity, just 450 sets have been authorised worldwide. That’s right — less than 500 collectors across the globe will ever hold this set in their hands.
And with demand soaring since launch, it’s no surprise that the set has already sold out at The Royal Mint. This is now a piece sought after on the secondary market — a prized addition for any serious collector or a perfect cornerstone for those looking to begin their journey.
