1983 - New One Pound Coin Introduced
In 1983, a new pound coin was introduced, the first since the gold sovereign was replaced by the pound note.
New proof set packaging was also introduced. The plastic display case was housed within an attractive blue leatherette protective wallet.
Each year since 1970, the Royal Mint has produced special editions of coin sets
for collectors, which are also ideal as gifts. We have a few of the 1983
United Kingdom coin sets, produced by the Royal Mint.
There are two variations of the 1983 coin sets available:-
-
Eight Coin Proof Set
"Proof" coins are specially struck with great care and attention. The dies are
highly polished on the flat surfaces, with a frosted finish on the design, the
blanks from which the coins are struck are also polished before striking
(minting), so that the finished coins show their designs to the absolutely best
effect. The raised relief parts of the design have a frosted finish, and stand
out from the background (field) which has a mirror finish. Each coin is
carefully inspected prior to packaging, and is guaranteed to be perfect and
without any blemish.
1983 proof sets contain:
New pound coin, featuring the Royal Coat of Arms.
The other seven circulating coins, 50 pence, 20 pence, 10 pence, 5 pence, 2
pence, 1 penny, and half penny.
All superbly packaged in a specially designed plastic case, and housed within
an attractive blue leatherette wallet.
-
Eight Coin Uncirculated Set
Contains the same eight coins as the proof set, from the Pound down to the Halfpenny.
Although not struck to the same standards as the proof coins, these coins are
also specially examined and selected before packaging. They are all superior to
the mass produced coins which are made for circulation because of the absence
of bag marks and scratches.
They are also packaged in a colourful attractive and informative folder.
-
Seven Coin Uncirculated Set
Contains the same seven coins as the uncirculated set excluding the One Pound, from the Fifty Pence down to the Halfpenny.
Although not struck to the same standards as the proof coins, these coins are
also specially examined and selected before packaging. They are all superior to
the mass produced coins which are made for circulation because of the absence
of bag marks and scratches.
They are also packaged in a colourful attractive and informative folder.
