The 1970 First Modern Royal Mint Proof Set

This is your chance to secure an original collection of eight Proof coins from this significant year in British history – also renowned as The Royal Mint’s greatest Proof set.

In 1970, some of the last pre-decimal UK coins were issued. It was also the year that The Royal Mint produced the first modern Proof set. Here’s why you need one:

  • This is the first modern Royal Mint Proof set and the last pre-decimal UK coins.
  • None of these coins were ever struck for circulation - this could be the only way to acquire 1970 issues.
  • Just one year later in 1971, UK currency was decimalised, meaning your set represents a momentous feat in British numismatic history
  • Comes housed in original Royal Mint packaging from 1970

These collections are incredibly sought-after by collectors, so don’t miss your chance to own one…
