Title: Maundy money and a few foreign
Post by: Tip-tiques on April 26, 2020, 02:13:35 PM
Three little Maundy money coins blew me away for a while when I found them until explained what they were. Given to the poor by the reining Monarch at the time, taken from an ancient biblical ceremony on the day before Good Friday. Charles 11 was the first to give out coins which were initially undated.
Included are 3 foreign coins I have also had the delight of finding.
