A 91-year-old grandma was stunned after discovering her treasured coin collection she kept under her bed could be worth $128,000. Marie Everett quietly built up her commemorative collection from the late 1970s, picking up coins with a royal theme.
The Collection
Her son Andrew said: “Mom is a huge royalist, so many of the coins relate to the late Queen or Princess Diana, while others mark commemorative themes such as the Gunpowder Plot or Remembrance Day.” The glittering hoard is expected to sell for $121,600 but could fetch far more when it goes under the hammer at Hansons Auctioneers next week.
