Breaking news from Wonderland! NEW Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland UK Coins just released
Can you believe that Lewis Carroll’s famous fantasy children’s book Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass have been entertaining audiences across the globe for more than 150 years?
Now, The Royal Mint has just released TWO BRAND NEW UK coins celebrating Alice and the inhabitants of Wonderland!
We invite you to join us for a very important tea party to take a look at these exciting new coins that are the perfect addition to any growing coin collection…
Two NEW UK Coins
The first coin features Alice alongside the cheeky Cheshire Cat perched in a tree. Alice fans will remember this iconic scene from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland when she first meets him outside the Duchess’s house.
The Cheshire Cat is known for constantly grinning, and disappearing and reappearing whenever it fancies, sometimes just leaving behind its toothy grin. It is the only character in the book to listen to Alice and teaches her the bizarre rules of Wonderland.
The second coin celebrates the sequel Through the Looking-Glass. In this charming coin design we see Alice depicted with the mischievous twins Tweedledum and Tweedledee.
In the book the twins are dressed as schoolboys and don’t hesitate to fight with one another over silly things. They show Alice the sleeping Red King and tell her about the Walrus and the Carpenter.
These two coins are available in a range of specifications – the Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland coin is available to own now, and you have the chance to get ahead of the crowd and PRE-ORDER the Through the Looking-Glass coin too, to complete your UK Alice collection…

High demand expected
Lewis Carroll’s nonsense fairytale about a girl called Alice is undeniably one of the best-known and most popular works of English-language fiction. Its popularity is clear when you consider it’s been adapted into theatre and ballet shows, not to mention several blockbuster Disney films.
Alice collectables are in high-demand – a ‘legendary’ 1865 first edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (one of only 22 known to be in existence) went under the hammer in 2016 for £1.3-£2 million. This confirms that these NEW UK COINS will be highly sought-after.

Unboxing the perfect tribute to Princess Diana
Today marks what would have been the late Princess Diana’s 60th Birthday.
And in my latest unboxing video I take a closer look at the limited edition coin and stamp collection that pays tribute to the incredible life and legacy of the People’s Princess.
But only 195 will EVER be released worldwide.
Why so few?
Well it pairs a 1999 UK £5 coin that’s scarcely available on the secondary market, with five historic Royal mail stamps that were issued for ONE YEAR only.
And to find just one stamp, let alone all FIVE in good condition over 20 years later is incredibly rare.
So if you’d like to be one of the 195 collectors to own this must have coin and stamp collection, don’t delay…
