This is a set of 3 x 16mm 6 sided dice for use in the dice game 'Crown and Anchors'.
Crown and Anchor is a classic gambling game that dates back to the 18th century, originally played by British sailors in the Royal Navy as early as the 1700s. The game likely evolved from earlier dice betting games and became a popular pastime on long voyages. By the 19th century, it had spread to fairs, carnivals, and even some casinos, particularly in Newfoundland and other maritime communities.
Using three special dice marked with a crown, anchor, and the four card suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades), players bet on which symbols will appear. It’s fast, fun, and full of excitement—no wonder it stood the test of time!
