Pobjoy Mint Gibraltar Coins

The Pobjoy Mint was commissioned by the Government of Gibraltar to lead the way in striking its new coins. The Twelve Labours of Hercules series proved particularly collectable and was reissued in 2020. The Nemean Lion edition in this 1997 set is from the original run and is a sought-after piece of Gibraltar and the Pobjoy Mint's coinage history. Only four of the Labours of Hercules £2 were available in BU annual sets such as this one.

Pre-Owned BU Gibraltar Set

This 1997 Gibraltar annual set is pre-owned and includes the original presentation folder, allowing for a display as the Pobjoy Mint intended.
