{"title":"Edward VIII Coins (1936)","description":"\u003cp\u003eEdward VIII's reign in 1936 was one of the shortest in British history, ending in abdication before his coronation. As a result, official UK coinage bearing his portrait was never released into circulation, making Edward VIII coins among the rarest and most intriguing in numismatics. However, a limited number of pattern and commemorative pieces were struck, and several Commonwealth nations issued coins with his name or intended portrait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis category features authentic and collectible Edward VIII coinage, including rare patterns, colonial issues, and tokens. A fascinating glimpse into a monarch who changed history, these coins are prized for their rarity, historical context, and the what-if story they represent in the royal lineage.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"edward-viii-pattern-crown-1936-63471","title":"Edward VIII Pattern Crown 1936 Cooper","description":"\u003cp\u003eA pattern coin is a coin which has not been approved for release, but produced to evaluate a proposed coin design\u003cbr\u003e\nObverse: Bare head of Edward VIII facing left.\u003cbr\u003e\nObverse legend: EDWARD VIII KING \u0026amp; EMPEROR\u003cbr\u003e\nReverse: St. George and the Dragon\u003cbr\u003e\nReverse legend: 1936\u003cbr\u003e\nEdge: plain\u003cbr\u003e\nCountry: United Kingdom\u003cbr\u003e\nYear: 1936\u003cbr\u003e\nMetal: Cooper-nickel\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight ±: 24.5 g.\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter ±: 38 mm\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthenticity unconditionally guaranteed!\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"ZipZappa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45717885714711,"sku":"MO1891-","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/8524\/5719\/products\/edward-viii-pattern-crown-1936-cooper-9452974.jpg?v=1751905347"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/8524\/5719\/collections\/edward-viii-coins-1936-2419784.png?v=1751898583","url":"https:\/\/www.zipzappa.com\/es\/collections\/edward-viii-coins-1936.oembed","provider":"ZipZappa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
