Additional information

Edward VIII abdicated in December 1936 before any circulating coinage bearing his effigy was issued, leaving a genuine gap in the British series that has attracted fantasy and pattern pieces ever since. This 2000-struck copper piece is a modern fabrication — not a period pattern, not a Royal Mint product, and not an official issue of any kind. The market for Edward VIII "patterns" is crowded with pieces of varying provenance and intent, and buyers should treat attribution claims with proportional skepticism.
