A delightful set of nine genuine pre-decimal coins mounted on a dark blue background and ready to display in a versatile, traditional wood and glass frame. This fascinating collection of genuine coins were in circulation in pockets and purses when Britain used a currency system of twelve pennies to the shilling and twenty shillings to the pound. It was a system that enriched the very language and literature of Britain, where tanners and bobs, ha’pennies and thruppenny-bits were instantly recognisable descriptions for the natives of these isles, but undoubtedly baffling in both name and complexity for unknowing visitors! A charming souvenir of Britain and absorbing gift for all ages.
