Elizabeth II. 'Pounds Shillings & Pence' set. Royal mint #sherborne 8 X Half SovereignsAlthough since decimalisation, many sets of the 'Old money' have been assembled and marketed, this set presented in a sealed and informative folder by The Royal mint was put together in 1989 and is one of the most attractive. The coins themselves, all common types, date from 1965 1967 and are choice uncirculated. While I am not a great fan of throwing a set of coins together for the sake of it, this has been nicely done.
