Collection: Decimal

Explore our collection of decimal coins for sale online. Introduced in 1971, the decimal system revolutionised the UK's coinage, replacing the old pre-decimal system including crowns, florins, and shillings with a simpler, more straightforward system of 100 new pence to the pound. The decimal coins feature a range of denominations, including the 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1, £2 coin and £5 coin.  These coins are not just a part of the everyday transaction system but also represent a significant moment in British history. The switch to decimal currency simplified money handling and calculation, making these coins an essential part of Britain’s financial history.  Many of the decimal coins are highly collectable, in particular the old one pound coin and rare five pound coin.

Whether you're a seasoned numismatist or just beginning your coin collection, decimal coins are a must-have for any collector.
