Farewell to the £.s.d. System Coin Collection
This is a coin collection commemorating the transition from the old British currency system of pounds, shillings, and pence (£.s.d.) to the decimal system. The set includes various denominations, offering a glimpse into the historical monetary values and designs used before 1971. The coins showcase the craftsmanship and artistry of British coinage during the pre-decimal era, representing a significant period in the nation’s economic history.
Condition and Collectibility
The coins appear to be in varied condition, with some showing signs of wear and age consistent with circulation or handling. This collection is of interest to numismatists, history enthusiasts, and collectors of British memorabilia. The set provides a tangible connection to a bygone era and a fascinating insight into the evolution of British currency, making it a unique and valuable addition to any collection.
