1905 royal visit to harrow commemorative coin

[Guest cbwudang]

HI there everyone looking for some help on a coin we have and this looked like the best place to start.

While digging around in my Nan's garden a few years back we unearthed a Silver (in colour) coin which states that it commemorates the royal visit to harrow in 1905. I was just wondering if this coin has any particular value or is of some use to anyone who collects these sorts of things. I could post a picture of it if it helps

On the front side it has a picture of King Edward V11 and Queen Alexandra and on the reverse is the message about the commemoration with the date 1905 (june 30th) and the latin saying "stet fortuna domus".

cheers for any help

The coin sounds more like a medal, but a picture would help.

Yes, it is a medallion. These things were extremely common and it's probably not worth more than a fiver.

There is/was a Harrow Coin Club who may be interested. There are a couple of telephone numbers on the internet: 0208 578 8794 or a Mr P R Edwards on 0208 952 8765.

Although not worth much, these commemorative medallions are always interesting to look at. Strange to think they were produced almost as a fleeting novelty over 100 years ago, and are of course, still around to this day, for us to gaze over.
