There's a little toning on some of the coins in this 1971
Proof Set, but that's to be expected with coins of this age,
even those enclosed in plastic display cases. Some of these
coins were first released in the late 1960s, which is strange to
consider now, because, in my mind, £sd coinage belong in the
'60s and decimal ones in the '70s. The fact that both sets of
currency overlapped (and in the case of the £sd equivalents
of decimal coins, for a good number of years afterwards)
is something we of a certain age tend to forget now.
