Coins and more eggs – 3 March 2012


The Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths had a special exhibition in their Guildhall of a rare coin, the 1933 Double Eagle. It was a rare chance to see inside their amazing guildhall as well as see a coin which was never legal tender, was illegal to possess and is only one of 13 left after all the rest were melted down when America left the gold standard in 1933.

We carried on from here to search out some more eggs of the Faberge Easter Egg Hunt. This time the hunt took us through tourist highlights such as Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden and the South Bank.
