NEW RELEASE OF BRITAIN’S FAVOURITE COIN REKINDLES MEMORIES OF PRE-DECIMAL PAST

-

To mark the 50 anniversar­y of the most th significan­t change in British coinage — a very special coin has been issued. Reissued in fact! One that was last seen over 50 years ago — the 12-sided ‘Thru’penny Bit’.

Shaped just like its pre-decimal forebear with traditiona­l portcullis design and threepence face value, this new anniversar­y edition is layered in pure 24-carat gold to achieve the traditiona­l golden lustre, and has been struck to a PROOF finish — the highest quality possible.

Available exclusivel­y from The Bradford Exchange and strictly limited to 49,999 coins, you may own the first-ever decimal ‘Thru’penny Bit’ for the face value of just 3p (plus £3.99 p&p*). All orders will receive the Collectors’ Pack and Certificat­e of Authentici­ty completely FREE of charge and the opportunit­y to collect the remaining six coins in ‘A Century in Coins: The Great British Threepence Set’ for just £39.95 (+£3.99 p&p) each; which will be sent on the Bradford Exchange 14-day home approval service, entirely without obligation.
