1948 Coins as Gifts

1948 Coin Sets
Eight Different Coins Issued
Not all values of coins are issued every year, but there were different British coin types issued in 1948.

No Official Coin Sets
Way back in 1948, 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.
We do make up our our UK coin sets, and can usually supply most dates. 1948 is quite a difficult year because the silver threepence is rare, please see our 1948 coin sets page for prices and availability.

1948 Gold Coins
There were no sovereigns or gold sovereigns issued in 1948, but this link may help you to find other gold coins dated 1948. It is a difficult year for gold coins, as we can find only four countries which issued gold coins in 1948, and the only one we can remember seeing is a scarce Romanian one.

Other 1948 Coins
We may be able to supply other coins of 1948 in silver or base metal, please telephone us for ideas.
