1996 Deluxe Proof Set In Leather Case

In 1996 the Queen celebrated her 70th Birthday and the Royal Mint issued a special commemorative £5 piece to honour the event. They also struck a handsome and unique £2 piece for the 10th European Football Championship. Each 1996 Proof Set contains: The commemorative £5 for the Queen’s 70th Birthday, the Football £2, plus the £1, 50p, 20p, 10p, 5p, 2p and 1p. Most important: the 50p was not struck for circulation, so if you need one, you have to get it from one of the sets. The Proof Set is specially struck in a high mirrored finish and placed in a display case.
