    Great Britain 1970 Proof Set
    Last Pence Shilling Pound of the Old System
    In 1970, Great Britain struck a proof-only, final issue, of the old currency system. These coins were not put into circulation, and exist only in this limited-edition proof set! Due to a fortunate purchase, we can offer these scarce and highly-desirable sets, issued to commemorate the end of over 1000 years of the old coinage in Great Britain!
    Each set contains: Half Crown, Florin, English & Scottish shillings, Sixpence, Brass Three Pence, Penny, Half Penny and Royal mint medal (each set has some light minor toning to copper)
