This collection consists of 19 items, primarily comprising British commemorative coins and medallions, associated packaging, and two wristwatches. The numismatic portion includes multiple examples related to the 1951 Festival of Britain Crown, matching the consensus identification. These include a dark maroon presentation box, a paper slip marked FESTIVAL OF BRITAIN 1951, and two large coins likely identified as the 1951 Crown. The collection also features three medallions or coins housed in black card sleeves marked Midland Bank. Further commemorative items include three coins housed in hard blue plastic protectors: two marked H. M. QUEEN ELIZABETH II SILVER JUBILEE 1952-1977, and one marked ROYAL WEDDING 1861. A small stack of five loose coins is contained within a purple-lined box, and three additional loose coins are individually bagged or sleeved. The collection also contains two wristwatches. The first is a square-faced gold-tone watch with a silver-and-gold-tone metal bracelet. The second is a round gold-tone watch with a black textured strap, marked GENEVA QUARTZ on the dial. The coins and medallions appear to be base metal or cupro-nickel/silver alloy.
