1968 5p & 10p Channel Islands & UK Set (6 coins)

In 1971 the Channel Islands adopted the new decimal pound as its currency, but preparation for the changeover began long before. The first 5 and 10 new pence coins were struck as early as 1968 as they had the same size and composition as the old shilling and florin. Now we can off er you a set of four coins consisting of the 5 and 10 new pence for circulation on the islands of Jersey and Guernsey, and for good measure we have added the same 2 coins from the same year for the United Kingdom, and all in Uncirculated condition.
