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.
Please note that most proof sets of this year will have some degree of surface "toning" or "tarnish".
1970 Proof Sets Contain:
The eight pre-decimal coin types, halfcrown, florin (two shillings), shilling in two versions - English and Scottish, sixpence, threepence, penny and halfpenny. None of the three circulation decimal coins, 50 new pence, 10 new pence or 5 new pence were included. Two new pence, new pence and new halfpence were not introduced until 1971.
All attractively packaged in a specially designed plastic case.
