In 2001, the Gibraltar government issued the gold proof one fifth ounce crowns shown here. The occasion for issuing these coins was the Centenary of the Victoria Era which ended in 1901.
The Victoria Era
The Centenary of the ending of the Victoria Era seems as good a reason to issue commemorative coins as many others.
The four coins in this particular set are each set with a precious gemstone, and each commemorates a different event in the life of Queen Victoria.
Prices Our prices for these coins will undoubtedly be a fraction of their original cost.
