Giant Queen Victoria Copper Penny - 100mm - This is totally fantastic... out of this world... a gigantic version of the old (historically accurate) Queen Victoria Copper Penny, and the best bit is that it's made up of solid delicious milk chocolate - how cool is that! Now, a bit of trivia for you here - the word penny comes from the Anglo-Saxon word 'penig' (it's root is similar to the German 'pfennig'). It was introduced as the unit of currency in Britain circa 757 AD. The Queen Victoria Copper Penny was introduced around the beginning of Queen Victoria's reign (1837-1901) and was issued until 1860. After this, pennies started to be minted in bronze. Now you can dazzle all your friends with some fab trivia, and a gigantic old coin!
