    World Cup Memorabilia Auction Sale - 1966 World Cup Final " Toss Up Coin For Sale "

    The toss up coin used by Swiss referee Gottfried Dienst in the 1966 World Cup Final
    at Wembley is up for auction, the referee Dienst gave memorabilia collector Bryan
    Horsnell the coin, the 1966 dated coin is coming up for auction in London, the coin
    could fetch £2,000 it is thought.

    Also up for auction is Sir Geoffrey Hurst 1970 World Cup shirt, expected to fetch £3,000

    Also up for auction, is a Distinguished Flying Cross, awarded to 1966 commentary legend
    & RAF volunteer Kenneth Wolstenholme, expected price around £10,000.

    [ Could FA buy the 1966 toss up coin, then place it in the Manchester football museum. ]

    Glad you called it the Manchester football museum, because that’s exactly what it is.

    There seems to be a bit of a gap between the UK and US sports memorabilia markets looking at these prices when a baseball trading card recently sold for $12.6M.
