Decimalisation was perhaps the single biggest change to our currency in over a thousand years, and affected the day to day lives of every single person in the country in 1971.
And now you have the chance to pay tribute to this important moment with a with a special PRE-ORDER opportunity for a BRAND NEW CuNi Proof British Isles Set…
FOUR BRAND NEW COINS – each with a special design
Included in the set are two coins from the Isle of Man - a Crown, the historic pre-decimal denomination, and a £5 Coin showing the pre-decimal and decimal denominations that have graced our coins.
And perfectly joining these are a Guernsey £5 Coin paying tribute to the conversion posters that were used to help people with the transition on Decimal Day. As well as a Jersey £5 Coin featuring a traditional cash register which would have been used 50 years ago!
It’s extremely significant to see a combined issue bringing together coin releases from THREE different issuing authorities, making this an especially collectable release. And what’s more, each coin has been struck to a Proof finish, really bringing out these beautiful designs in best possible way.
