The 20 pence coin, featuring a crowned Tudor rose in the center and an inscription of “Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina F.D.” on the obverse side. This coin is an unusual 7-sided shape.

The one pound coin, which was introduced for the first time that year. It features an image of the Royal Coat of Arms on one side and a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the other. This coin was designed to be easily distinguishable from other coins and to replace the one pound banknote.

At Heads and Tails Jewellery, we make beautiful and unique pieces of jewellery from coins, including cufflinks, necklaces, keyrings, hip flasks, tie clips, money clips, and coin rings. Each piece is expertly crafted by hand, ensuring that every detail is perfect.
