2003 British Royal Mint Coin Sets

Obverse of 2003 £5 Crown

Obverse of 2003 Coronation Jubilee £5 Crown

For 2003, there are five variations of the coin sets available:

• Ten Coin Uncirculated Set
  Contains the ten circulating coins, from the Two Pounds down to the Penny, but please note they do not contain the Crown.
  Although not struck to the same standards as the proof coins, these coins are also specially examined and selected before packaging. They are all superior to the mass produced coins which are made for circulation because of the absence of bag marks and scratches.
  They are also packaged in a colourful attractive and informative folder.
  
• Eleven Coin Proof Sets
  "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.
  This years proof sets contain:
  • The new Year 2003 Coronation Jubilee Five Pounds Crown
    
  • The new Year 2003 DNA Two Pounds Coin
    
  • The Standard Two Pounds
    
  • Royal Arms Pound
    
  • The new Year 2003 "Suffragette" Fifty Pence
    
  • The Standard Fifty Pence
    
  • The other circulating coins, 20 pence, 10 pence, 5 pence, 2 pence, and 1 penny.
  
  
• Standard Proof Set
  All superbly packaged in a newly designed plastic case, and housed within an attractive wallet.
• Gift Pack Proof Set
  The Royal Mint have stopped producing the "Gift Pack" proof sets.
• Executive Proof Set
  As the above Proof Sets, but with a booklet, and housed in a completely redesigned presentation pack, with space for personal mementoes.
  In 2000, the executive proof set sold out at the Royal Mint without ever going on open sale. It was then followed by delays while the supplier of the new packaging design tried to iron out problems.
• De-Luxe Proof Set - In Red Leather Wallet
  The de-luxe proof set has returned by popular demand!
  Contains all nine denominations, from £5 Crown down to Penny.
  Complete in red wallet made of real leather.
