United Kingdom Crowns

Hi. I'm not exactly a coin collector but I've got these UK crowns that I wanted to know a bit about. My father gave them to me a few years back and theyre in a bag which is sealed saying London Royal Mint. It has a tag on it saying United Kingdom Crowns 200 pieces and is dated -3/DEC/65. Is this, or will it be of any particular value to either a coin collector or an auctioneer? And if so how much? I was thinking that because its still sealed it might be worth something...
Thanks, Richard

    1965 would make them Churchill crowns. Not very popular and considered by many to be one of the ugliest in British coinage, Usually goes for under a Dollar each.

  • Just the bag, or the coins too? image
    Any toning, etc from nearly 40 years in the bag?
