1986 UK Premium Proof Annual 8 Coin Set

from

£25.00

Celebrate the year 1986 with The Royal Mint’s eight coin annual set, featuring UK circulating coinage struck to proof standard. It was the year that the first UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the UK were designated, including the Giant’s Causeway and Stonehenge. The designs represent all of the home nations, from the badge of the Prince of Wales on the Two Pence and English Lion on the Ten Pence, to the One Pound representing Northern Ireland, and the Scottish thistle on the Five Pence. This set features a special commemorative Two Pound which celebrates the 1986 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh, with a St Andrews Cross and thistle design. Each features Raphael Maklouf’s portrait of The Queen on the obverse. These coins are struck in the same alloy as the coins in your change, including nickel-brass and cupro-nickel, but are struck to the higher proof standard. Proof coins have a finer finish, achieved with multiple strikes of hand finished dies. This annual includes a 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1 and special commemorative £2 displayed together inside a protective plastic sleeve which allows you to view both sides of the coins without incurring damage. They are presented in the premium red leather case. You may notice some toning on the coins which is typical for these sets several decades on from when they were issued.

Steeped in more than 1,100 years of history, The Royal Mint supplies all of the United Kingdom's coinage as well as currency for nations around the world. Renown for craftsmanship and thoughtful design, The Royal Mint also produces commemorative coins, favoured by investors and collectors.

A Millennia of Minting

Founded in the reign of Alfred the Great, around the year 886, The Royal Mint was originally one of several mints which were centralised to London in 1279. For more than 800 years the Mint was based at the Tower of London before moving to Royal Mint Court where it remained until the 1960s.

The Royal Mint has always been on the forefront of economic, technical and artistic innovation. Its skilled craftsmen minted coins that would reach the far corners of the British Empire, establishing the image and reputation of Britain for all whose pockets they ended up in.

In 2010 The Royal Mint became a limited company owned by Her Majesty’s Treasury. In recent years the Mint has struck medals for the 2012 London Olympic Games and opened a visitor centre, The Royal Mint Experience, in Llantrisant, Wales: the current home of The Royal Mint.

Collecting and Investing

The Royal Mint's commemorative and bullion coins – often minted to mark important national events and anniversaries – are not intended for circulation. They might look like ordinary coins but they are generally worth much more, thanks to their scarcity, finish and composition.

Most commemorative coins produced by The Royal Mint are available in a range of striking standards including Gold Proof, Silver Proof, Brilliant Uncirculated and Bullion. Some are also available in collectors sets. Gold and Silver Proof coins are minted in small numbers, making them rare and desirable.

The Royal Mint's commemorative coins are both VAT-free and Capital Gains Tax (CGT) exempt, making them an attractive and valuable investment. Whether you are diversifying your investments or simply appreciate world-class design, commemorative coins from The Royal Mint are a great buy.

We're based in Royal Wootton Bassett, a historic market town in beautiful Wiltshire. If the name rings a bell it's probably because you remember how the community honoured those soldiers who lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan. The 'Royal' in the name was granted in 2011 to recognise this.

Our new showroom – opened in 2020 – is located in the heart of Royal Wootton Bassett in a grand, old bank building. Inside you can view our stock, as well as jewellery and collectibles from several local antique dealers. Look out for the Old Bank Antiques sign and come on in.
