Elizabeth II, 2 Pence 1977 Brilliant Unc

This single Proof decimal coin has been taken from the Proof Sets of the respective year. Over the years some of the coins will have toned a little, but that does not change the fact that they are Proof coins; supplies are limited!

One of the most interesting coins of the Decimal series is the 10 Pence pieces, especially the old large-sized coins. The first Decimal 10p was introduced in 1968, replacing the two shilling coin in preparation for decimalisation in 1971. It features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin on the obverse. Today you get the small-sized 10 Pence in your change, as this large-sized coin has not been made for over 16 years.

As the round pound is no longer being made, many collectors will be trying to put together a date set in Uncirculated condition and let us tell you many of the dates are tough in Uncirculated. Not many people put away pound coins, after all it was a considerable amount of money. This round pound was struck in 1990 and has the Welsh leek inside a crown. The coins are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and are now 28 years old.
