Ten Pence 2008 Lion Passant Silver Proof

To play Shove Halfpenny the first thing you need are 10 of the old pre-decimal Halfpennies, five for each player. Then you need a wooden board but almost any flat piece of wood will do, it is the Halfpennies that are the most important. After all you cannot play Shove Halfpenny without any Halfpennies. Coincraft has come to the rescue, with our Shove Halfpenny Mini Bag. You get a nice bag holding 10 1967 (the last year of issue) Halfpennies in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Five coins for each player. The coins are now some 53 years old, but in brand new condition from an original Mint sealed bag of coins. These would make an excellent holiday present along with a piece of wood to play the game on. You supply the board we supply the coins. A mini bag of 10 Brilliant Uncirculated Halfpennies just £8.95

Silver Proof £2 coin commemorative of the 50th Anniversary of the End of World War II. The Dove of Peace on the reverse and Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. Each coin comes in a protective capsule.

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.
