A collection of numismatic items and a piece of jewellery comprising a US 1881 Morgan silver dollar, a UK 1912 silver threepence, a UK Queen Victoria veiled head silver coin, and several UK mid-20th-century coins featuring the young head portrait of Elizabeth II. The Morgan dollar features the Liberty head obverse and the 1912 threepence bears the George V portrait with the legend BRITT: OMN: REX. The Elizabeth II coins carry the legend ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA F.D. and appear to be cupro-nickel issues. The accompanying jewellery is a torque-style cuff bracelet of twisted rope design with spherical finials, fashioned from a white metal.
Condition report:
The items exhibit mixed conditions consistent with circulation and use. The 1881 Morgan dollar shows significant wear to the central obverse portrait and lost detail to the legends. The 1912 threepence and Queen Victoria coin show moderate wear and surface toning. The Elizabeth II coins display typical circulation marks, surface scratches, and some darkening. The bracelet shows surface tarnish and minor contact marks.
