An uncirculated British crown coin issued by the Royal Mint to mark the death of Winston Churchill in 1965. Made of cupronickel. "We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what is our policy? I will say: It is to wage war, by sea, land, and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous virus rarely surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human history. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be." Winston Churchill
