The British Heritage Collection

The British team that produces our coin sets is a leader in nostalgic, commemorative and souvnir coin gifts. Using genuine pre-decimal coins, stamps and bank notes no longer in circulation, they produce the ideal British souvenir and original gift ideas.This attractive presentation of authentic coins and bank notes in use during the 1950s and 60s is attractively framed and certain to appreciate in value as these older coins become increasingly scarce. This collection is part of the Premier Range of genuine British pre-decimal coins and bank notes; the coins and notes in your pocket until they were taken out of circulation when England switched to a decimal system of coinage. It includes a farthing (1/4th of a penny) half-penny, penny, brass twelve sided threepence, a rare silver threepence taken out of circulation in 1944, sixpence, shilling, florin, half-crown, plus one pound and a ten shilling note.The background illustration for this collection was created by an in-house British team and are protected by the British Giftware Association Copywatch.
