1979 5 Coin Proof Set
A five coin proof set issued by the Royal Mint.

1979 5 Coin Proof Set
We can offer sets of all five coins in proof condition, packaged in a red card in a specially designed plastic case.

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. Please note that most proof sets of this year will have some degree of surface "toning" or "tarnish".
