I have a bag of old pre-decimal coins. Not rare and worth very little.
I have a couple late Victorian pennies from 1898 and 1900, along with 1906 and 1907 pennies from the reign of her drunken womanising son, Edward the seventh.
He was a very popular King I believe?
But was he the one that was rumoured to be Jack the Ripper in his youth? or was that one of his bothers?
One for Lizzie?
Neither Opti. It was suggested that Prince Albert Edward Victor, Duke of Clarence, one of the Grandson's of Queen Victoria,son of Prince of Wales "Bertie", later King Edward VII, was, but there is absolutely no proof whatsoever that he could have been.
Various suspects have been named, which I will not repeat here as nothing was ever proved. However, a certain butchers cartman / delivery man has been fairly recently noted by some historians as being an extremely likely candidate based on various facts surrounding him. These include his route to work through the Whitechapel area which coincides with where the victims were found, his knowledge of carcass dissection within the his working duties, and his permanent state of dress, which was an apron that would be covered in blood from the meat he carried. Nothing again has been definitely proved, nor will it ever be now, leading to it being one of those wonderful historical unresolvable mysteries.
