I don't know what it would be worth, but it is definitely a collector's item. In a Canadian museum, there is a Wedgwood tea service that commemorates the coronation of King Edward VIII, but of course he was never crowned. And that's why it is in the museum, because of the rarity.
Take good care of your object, and do not use it. Keep it in a cabinet. If you have the chance to ask an antiques dealer, that might help.
I am attaching information from Antiques Roadshow, which might be helpful.

Hmm very hard to say without seeing it - but generally speaking it's probably not worth as much as you'd like it to be. I'd say towards £30 rather than £50... I think you'd be surprised by the amount of stuff they managed to get out on sale for poor old Edward's coronation before they realized things weren't going to go to plan. Still worth getting it valued.

This question comes up a lot at antique valuations.
There are a lot of these souvenirs around and they aren't worth as much as the owners think.
Depending on condition and how many bidders want it you may get £20 - £60. £60 on a very good day.

not a lot because the manufacturers had time to churn out lots of commemorative items for E8 and then sold it off cheap. His brother's coronation caught manufacturers unawares and so is more valuable.

That sort of thing is worth very little
