1983 Coins as Gift Suggestions

1983 Three Coin Sovereign Set in Presentation Box

1983 Coins as Gifts
As a leading UK coin dealer, we are often asked for coins or coin sets from particular years such as 1983, as gift items. We are happy to try to oblige. On this page we list a few suggestions.
We keep most of the following coins in stock for immediate delivery.

Gold Sovereigns
1983 proof sovereigns are contained in a plastic capsule within a Royal Mint leather box, and are accompanied by a certificate.
They are unnecessarily good for use in jewellery, which would ruin their special finish in a very short space of time, but they are ideal for the person who would prefer to keep them as a memento or family heirloom.
We can also supply ring and pendant mounts for them, for those who like to wear their coins in jewellery. Sovereign pendants can be worn by men or women, sovereign rings are quite large and are more suitable for larger mens hands.
We have more information about gold sovereigns on our Gold Sovereigns website. This is also the best place to check for the most current price and availability.

Half Sovereigns
Half sovereigns are less expensive than sovereigns, and make are a more suitable size for use in rings, as sovereign rings are too large for many people.
In 1983, there were no ordinary uncirculated half sovereigns issued, but a proof version was issued, and we permanently keep a few in stock for immediate delivery.
We have up to date prices on all Elizabeth II half sovereigns on our "Tax Free Gold website.

Krugerrands
Although we don't get asked for krugers as frequently as sovereigns, they are a suitable and unusual alternative.
They are available for 1983, and we also sometimes have fractional sizes of krugerrands available for 1983.
The four sizes of krugerrand are:-

• One Ounce
• Half Ounce
• Quarter Ounce
• Tenth Ounce

We have more information about all four sizes of krugerrands on our specialised Tax Free Gold website.

British Coin Sets
For 1983, we have Royal Mint coin sets available from stock.
These are described more fully on our 1983 Coin Sets page.

1983 Gold Sovereign Proof Set
In 1983, the Royal Mint issued for the first time, a 3 coin gold proof sovereign set. These consist of £2, sovereign and half sovereign.
They were struck as a limited edition, but we often have one in stock. They make a very special gift, and naturally are quite expensive.
We have more information about the 1983 gold sovereign proof set on our specialised Tax Free Gold website.
