Exceedingly Rare Coronation Coach produced by Lesney in 1952/3. The first 200-300 of these coaches were made containing a king & a queen,which were then discovered to be in error (the coach being made to celebrate the coronation of Elizabeth II ). The king figure was cut out of the mould and a further 40-50thousand coaches were then made for retail: Some of the first type with two figures survive - and this is one of them.
This is the large Coronation Coach (Lesney also made a much smaller one)
length :- 15" overall (approx). height of coach :- 3.1/2" (at highest point).
