Great Britain 1 crown George V Saint George KM-842 MS63 PCGS silver coin 1935

The 1935 Great Britain Silver Crown featuring King George V and the legendary Saint George design is one of the most iconic commemorative issues of the British monarchy. Certified MS63 by PCGS, this impressive crown was struck to celebrate the Silver Jubilee of King George V, marking 25 years of his reign over the British Empire. Combining historical significance with exceptional artistic detail, the coin remains highly sought after by collectors of British silver crowns and royal commemoratives.

The obverse displays the left-facing portrait of King George V with a finely detailed moustache and realistic facial features. Surrounding the bust is the Latin inscription “GEORGIVS V D:G: BRITT: OMN: REX F:D: IND: IMP:” identifying him as King of Great Britain and Emperor of India. The fields exhibit beautiful iridescent toning with multicolored highlights across the silver surfaces, adding strong visual character to the certified mint state example.

The reverse showcases the famous St. George and the Dragon motif inspired by Benedetto Pistrucci’s classic interpretation. Saint George appears mounted on horseback with raised spear and shield, dramatically confronting the dragon below. The dynamic horse posture, flowing tail, armor details, dragon scales, claws, and curved body create a bold composition full of movement and symbolism. The inscription “CROWN” and the date “1935” complete the historic design.

Struck in silver and graded PCGS MS63, this Silver Jubilee crown beautifully represents British royal history, Christian symbolism, and masterful numismatic artistry. A wonderful addition to collections focused on crowns, monarchs, heraldic themes, and classic British coinage.
