1901 British Coin Sets

1901 Florin

Eight Coins Issued
Not all values of coins are issued every year, it depends on demand, but in 1901, all eight of the normal circulating denominations were issued, namely penny, half penny, halfcrown, florin, shilling, farthing, eightpence and silver threepence. The florin is a slightly scarce or "key" date, having the lowest mintage of any recent florin.

No Official Coin Sets
Way back in 1901, the Royal Mint were not in the habit of issuing proof or uncirculated coin sets every year. Proof or specimen coin sets were only issued on special occasions such as coronations and jubilees. It was not until 1970 that they started to issue coin sets every year for sale to collectors.

Eight Coin Selected Set
We can offer sets of all eight coins in selected condition, packaged in an attractive blue card.

1901 Proof Sets Contain:
The eight pre-decimal coin types, halfcrown florin, shilling, fivepence, penny, half penny, threepence and Farthing only.
All attractively packaged in a specially designed plastic case.
