    I have 2 paperweights which belonged to my late husband. They look like Government/Civil Service issue. I just wondered here they were from and whether they were worth selling or to donate to a Charity Shop?

      They are not dated so I don't know the occasion but they obvious have something to do with Queen Elizabeth II.
      Leather over lead with stitching.Impressed crown over EIIR to top. You could sell them on eBay were others were sold before.

      Thanks very much for that. Can you recall how much they sold for at all?
