Elizabeth II, 1977 Mint Set Special

In 1977 Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her Silver Jubilee or 25th anniversary as our Queen. The Royal Mint issued a special Crown to mark the occasion and more importantly, issued every denomination for that year for circulation. This is something that did not happen all that often. They also issued a Proof Set of these 1977 coins, but they did not issue a Mint Set in 1977. Years ago we obtained a quantity of the coins and had Sandhill make up a red white and blue display card for the 1977 Mint Set. It comes in a Sandhill case, which with the insert would cost you today at least £4-£5, as they are no longer made. You get the Halfpenny, Penny, Twopence, Five Pence, Ten Pence, 50 Pence and Crown. Only the Penny and Twopence are still being made today of the same size and even they are now made out of steel. All the other coins have been reduced in size except for the Halfpence and Crown which are no longer made. All of the coins are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, remember the case and insert alone would cost you £4-£5 today, a bargain!

Picture of Elizabeth II, 1990 Royal Mint Brilliant Unc Mint Set

Elizabeth II, 1990 Royal Mint Brilliant Unc Mint Set

The 1990 Mint Set is, in our opinion, a very important set. Three of the coins in the set were not issued for circulation. They are the 5p, 10p, and 50p coins. If you wanted to buy these on their own these three coins would cost considerably more than we charge for the complete set. The 1990 Mint Set contains the £1, 50p not issued for circulation, 20p, 10p not issued for circulation, 5p large-sized not issued for circulation, 5p small-sized, 2p and 1p. The coins are in fact, in specimen condition, which is halfway between Brilliant Uncirculated and Proof, so they are better than Brilliant Uncirculated coins. The whole set comes in a full colour package, loaded with information about the Shilling and the 5 Pence.

1994 Mint Set

Elizabeth II, 1994 Mint Set

1994 was a year to remember, The Channel Tunnel was officially opened by the Queen and the French President, Nelson Mandela became president of South Africa, classic films such as Pulp Fiction and Forrest Gump were then released. The year also marked the 300th anniversary of the Bank of England. In 1994 The Royal Mint also issued its usual Mint Set of coins in Specimen Uncirculated. We have a small group where the outer folder is a bit worn, but the coins inside are perfect. You get 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p not issued for regular usage, 20p, 50p 50th anniversary of the end of World War II, £1 Scottish and £2 300th anniversary of the Bank of England. Some of these coins are tough to get especially in Specimen Uncirculated condition...

Elizabeth II, Blue Wallet Decimal Coins with Nice Plastic Case

Elizabeth II, Blue Wallet Decimal Coins with Nice Plastic Case

In 1968 the Royal Mint in preparations for the change over from Pre-decimal coins to Decimal coins issued a wallet of the new coins. It came in a blue plastic wallet and thus they became known as ‘Blue Wallets’. At one time these sets were as common as muck so to speak. Many of the wallets turned sticky because of the type of plastic they used. So there are now two grades of the wallets sticky and non-sticky. Ask someone today when were the first decimal coins and they are old enough to remember the changeover, they will say 1971 and they will be wrong. Because in these Blue Wallets which contain 1/2p, 1p, 2p, 5p and 10p the 5p and 10p are dated 1968! Today the marketing companies are breaking up these sets for the 1968 5p and 10p and you hardly ever see them. We bought 100 sets from a bank that just had them left over. Half were sticky and half were nice. Here we offer them in the non-sticky plastic case. Please remember the quality is about the case only. You get 1968 5p & 10p plus the 1971 ½, 1 and 2 New Pence all in Uncirculated condition.

1965 Mint Set Churchill Unc

Elizabeth II, Mint Set (Churchill) 1965 Unc

We just found them in one of our vault rooms but less than 50 sets available.

Mint Set 1986 Specimen_obv

Elizabeth II, Mint Set 1986 Specimen

In 1986 the Royal Mint issued their first ever non-Gold £2 coin, it was a commemorative for the Commonwealth Games which were held in Edinburgh. They of course were put in the 1986 Mint Set, which was a fast seller 26 years ago. But more importantly, four of the coins in that Mint Set were not struck for circulation! Those coins are the 5p, 10p, 20p, and 50p. That means if you need any of these four coins for your collection, then you have to break up a Mint or Proof Set. What the Mint didn’t tell you is the coins in this Mint Set are not Uncirculated, no; they are Specimens that are much better quality. Each 1986 Mint Set contains: £2, £1, 50p, 20p, 10p, 5p, 2p and 1p, of which four coins were not struck for circulation.

2008 Mint Set New Coin Design

Elizabeth II, Mint Set 2008 New Coin Design

In 2008 they changed all the designs on our coinage, the new design, presented here, was supposed to be based on a shield. In fact it caused a lot of confusion as most of the designs when taken singularly looked like mint errors. We understand that they might be changing the designs again sortly. We can offer the Official 2008 Royal Mint, new mint set in brilliant uncirculated condition. We only have 8 in stock, so if you want one please get in quickly.

Picture of Elizabeth II, Royal Mint 1987 Set Brilliant Unc

Elizabeth II, Royal Mint 1987 Set Brilliant Unc

In 1987 the Royal Mint issued the ‘Uncirculated’ set of the then current coins. We say Uncirculated but, in fact, they are much better quality, they are Specimens or Prooflike examples. The 1987 Mint Set includes: The English Pound, 50p, 20p, 10p, 5p, 2p, and 1p. The only problem for collectors is that the 1987 10p and 50p coins were not struck for circulation. That means that if you want either of these two coins then you will have to break up a set. This 1987 Mint Set comes in a full-colour folder with lots of interesting information about the coins.

Mint Set 1989_front

Mint Set 1989

For some reason the 1989 Mint Set has always been one of the more difficult to get. Perhaps there wasn’t so much interest that year and collectors didn’t buy so many. I don’t know the reason, but I do know that we are always running short of the 1989 Mint Sets. Perhaps one reason is that the 10p and the 50p for 1989 were not issued for circulation, which means that you have to break up a set to get these two coins. They are of course, in the Mint Set. The Royal Mint calls these coins Uncirculated, but they are in fact Specimen striking's. That means better than Uncirculated but not quite Proof condition. If you compare them to the coins you get in your change, you will see that they are much nicer quality. Each set contains the £1, 50p, 20p, 10p, 5p, 2p and 1p coins all struck in Specimen Uncirculated quality. Remember that the 10p and the 50p were not struck for circulation.

Mint Set 1992 With EU 50 Pence

Mint Set 1992 With EU 50 Pence

The 1992 Mint Set is one of the most important that the Royal Mint has issued. That is because four of the coins in it, were not struck for circulation. For this is the set here the Mint changed over from bronze 1p & 2p coins to copper plated steel. They also reduced the size of the 10 Pence coin. You get the 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p large and small, 20p, Britannia 50p and EU 50 Pence all in a full colour presentation case. The 1p & 2p are struck in bronze and were not issued for circulation. You get the large sized 10p which was not issued for circulation. Finally you get the Britannia 50 Pence which was not issued for circulation. This is a very important set because it contains three coins that were radically changed and the 50 pence which was not issued.

United Kingdom 1982 Mint Set

United Kingdom 1982 Mint Set

It wasn’t until 1982 that the Royal Mint started to issue Mint Sets on a regular basis.They issued these sets in full colour cardboard holders. The bubble packs, as we call them, contain lots of interesting information about the coins. The Mint calls these coins Uncirculated but in fact they are far better quality, we call them Specimens. The following coins are including in the 1982 Mint Set, but were not issued for circulation the, 2p, 5p and 10p.
