In 2008, the Royal Mint introduced new reverse designs on our coinage. The lowest denomination was the decimal One Penny which had, since its introduction in 1971, borne the distinctive crowned portcullis chained design on the reverse, the badge of the Beaufort family and later adopted by Henry Tudor but also the official emblem of the UK Parliament. To mark the final use of this design on the One Penny coin, the Royal Mint struck some in silver proof and it is these special coins that we offer you here, but we have a limited number available, supplied in protective capsules.
