George V Farthings 1911–1936 Complete Date & Mint Collection

Explore an important chapter of British numismatic history with this beautifully presented George V Farthing Collection, celebrating the reign of King George V and the coinage of Britain from 1911 to 1936.

King George V ruled from 1910 until his death in January 1936, overseeing a period of extraordinary historical change that included the First World War, the transformation of the British Empire and the foundations of the modern Commonwealth.

At the heart of this custom framed presentation is an impressive chronological arrangement of British farthings spanning 1911 to 1936. Each coin is individually positioned and identified by year, illustrating the development of this historic denomination throughout George V's reign.

The display also highlights the two distinct portrait types associated with George V's farthings, alongside references to the Royal Mint in London and the Heaton Mint in Birmingham.

Above the collection, a royal crown, historical portraits, British flags and traditional heraldic imagery celebrate the monarchy and its heritage. An accompanying historical summary provides insight into George V's reign and the remarkable events that shaped the era.

The lower section features an antique-style world map highlighting territories associated with the British Empire, complemented by illustrations of a historic sailing ship and an elephant, reflecting Britain's maritime history and global connections.

Warm parchment tones, decorative gold detailing and carefully arranged historical elements give the presentation the appearance of a traditional museum exhibit.

Finished in a classic black frame with a contrasting mount, this distinctive collectible brings together British coinage, royal heritage and historical storytelling in one elegant display.

A fitting tribute to King George V and the enduring legacy of Britain's pre-decimal coinage.
