The 2015 sterling-silver Crown and Tickey set includes a R2 crown-sized coin, a 2½ c Tickey coin and a sterling-silver model of a steam train.
The R2 Crown and Tickey were first introduced in 1997. Between 2012 and 2015, the theme was Trains of South Africa. In 2012, the first of the trains to be portrayed was the Gautrain, followed by the diesel electric locomotives in 2013 and the electric locomotives and trains in 2014. The steam-powered locomotives are featured on the 2015 coins, the last instalment in the theme. |
