Coin from the "Ships that Changed the World" series. It was struck from 1 oz of pure silver and its reverse features a colourful image of the Cutty Sark. It comes in an elegant box. The SV Cutty Sark is a 19th century tea clipper that broke many speed records. It is now the only surviving tea clipper in the world and stands in dry dock at the quayside in the London Borough of Greenwich as a museum ship. "The Cutty Sark was built in Scotland in 1869 as a sailing ship to carry tea from China. As some believe, it was also the most beautiful of all the sailing ships in the world.
