2 WWI UK COMMEMORATIVE ITEMS: 1) THE “TOMMY” CLEAR STATUE & 2) 5£ LEST WE FORGET COINThis auction is for the following TWO (2) RARE, HISTORIC AND VERY SPECIAL UNITED KINGDOM WORLD WAR I COMMEMORATIVE ITEMS:
1) A table top size “Tommy” Clear Statue Set that comes in its original box and packaging along with all of its original and authentic accessories.
Some of the information and description from the manufacturer about this item states:
“The impactful Tommy military figure is housed within beautiful commemorative packaging made and fulfilled by veterans employed at Royal British Legion Industries (RBLI) Each purchase of one of the Tommy products has assisted with helping a veteran into employment.
It is the perfect way to Remember the Fallen and show your support in your home or workplace.
Put a Tommy in your Window- When placed in sunlight, it creates a beautiful shadow that casts the Tommy outline.”
THIS IS A TRULY SPECIAL, EXTREMELY NICE AND RESPECTFUL ITEM THAT IS RATHER DIFFICULT TO FIND AND A PLEASURE AND AN HONOR TO HAVE.
It comes in a form fitting box what holds the statue and it’s base.
It also comes with A SPECIAL REMEMBRANCE CARD that has the image of a card sent from a soldier named Jim to one of his loved ones named Nell.
This remembrance card indicates that Jim sent this beautiful card over 100 years ago, in October 1917, during World War I. It goes on to state that we don’t know if Jim made it home and ever saw Nell again.
Also included is a Token Piece dated 1914-1918 at the top and has a RED POPPY with the words LEST WE FORGET in the middle. The bottom of the token is dated 2014-2018. It is still in its plastic bag and appears to have a pouch that it can be stored in.
This EXCEPTIONAL SET comes from a relative who acquired it for me from England.
IT’S A VERY SPECIAL STATUE and its accessories are in what I would consider to be excellent condition.
PLEASE NOTE: The only slight flaw that I observed and/or could detect was a slightly scuffed area which I have shown in a CLOSE UP PHOTO with this listing. This photo is THE LAST PHOTO in all of the pictures shown with this listing.
This area may show up somewhat in some of the other photographs, particularly with the use of the ZOOM feature that eBay allows you to use with all of the photographs.
IN MY OPINION, the slightly scuffed area does not distract from the quality, display or the overall appearance of this item and and it is not particularly noticeable and/or distracting.
OTHERWISE, I believe everything in THIS GREAT SET IS IN NEAR EXCELLENT/ESSENTIALLY NEW CONDITION.
PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT AN EXPERT AND/OR A DEALER REGARDING COINS, TOKENS AND/OR PRECIOUS METALS. I DO NOT CLAIM TO HAVE ANY EXPERTISE IN GRADING THEIR CONDITIONS OR OTHERWISE EVALUATING THEIR VALUES OR INTRICACIES.
CONSEQUENTLY, I WILL TOTALLY DEFER TO THE PHOTOGRAPHS AND ASK THAT YOU USE YOUR OWN JUDGMENT REGARDING YOUR ASSESSMENT AS TO THE DESCRIPTION, CONDITION, QUALITY AND VALUE OF THESE ITEMS.
THE SECOND VERY SPECIAL ITEM in this auction IS:
2) A Jersey UK 5 POUNDS 2008 Elizabeth II “LEST WE FORGET ” 1918 COMMEMORATIVE COIN.
Please understand that I am not a dealer in coins and don’t purport to have any expertise with regard to certification, description and condition of coins.
My Layman’s opinion regarding this nice coin is that it comes packaged in a hard plastic coin holder and does not appear to have ever been used. It appears to be IN OVERALL VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT CONDITION.
This beautiful coin comes from a relative who acquired it for me from England.
In my opinion, ALL OF THE SPECIAL ITEMS LISTED IN THIS AUCTION ARE EXCELLENT, AUTHENTIC AND RARE KEEPSAKES .
Again, PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT AN EXPERT AND/OR A DEALER REGARDING COINS, TOKENS AND/OR PRECIOUS METALS AND I DO NOT CLAIM TO HAVE ANY EXPERTISE IN GRADING THEIR CONDITIONS OR OTHERWISE EVALUATING THEIR VALUES OR INTRICACIES.
