The 1984 Halfpence, Two Pence, Five Pence, Ten Pence and Fifty Pence were not struck for circulation. The only way to get one of these coins is to buy a Mint Set or Proof Set and break it up. They only made 158,820 of the Mint Set with the coins in Specimen Brilliant Uncirculated condition. That makes these coins some of the lowest mintage coins around. Offered here is the Twopence in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.

In 1996 the Royal Mint did something they had never done before. They issued a Proof Set of the then current 1996 coins but, every coin was struck in Proof Sterling Silver. Here we present the 1996 Two Pence in Sterling Silver.

A dealer we know broke up some Royal Mint 2009 all Silver Proof Sets for the Kew Gardens 50p. We were able to buy the rest of the sets at a most reasonable price, which we are now passing on to you. There were six (6) sets, so there are just six of each of the following Sterling Silver Proof coins. Here we present the 2p in its Royal Mint Protective capsule, at this price it is well worth thinking about…

In 1971, for the first time, the Royal Mint issued decimal Half Pence coins as well as the One Pence and the Two Pence coins. The Half Pence ceased to be made in 1984 and it looks like the other two denominations are on their way out as well. Only in 1971 did the Royal Mint issue its bronze coins in rolls. Each roll contained 50 coins and they were shrink wrapped. These coins are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition still in their original rolls even though they are now 53 years old. Oh yes, the denomination was ‘New Pence’, it was not until 1982 that they dropped the word ‘New’ and they became just Pence. BU rolls of 50 coins all dated 1971. Just for your edification: one dealer is selling the 1971 coins one by one, not a roll but just one coin for the following prices 2p £5.00 (£250)!

In 2008, the Royal Mint introduced new reverse designs on our coinage. One of the most distinctive and memorable designs on the whole of our Decimal coinage was the Prince of Wales feathers on the Two Pence coin which had been struck every year since it was introduced in 1971. To mark the final use of this design on the Two Pence 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.
