A Tribute to the End of an Era – The UK’s Farewell to the L.S.D. System (1956–1967 Coin Set)

 On 15 February 1971, the United Kingdom said goodbye to one of the world’s longest-running currency systems—the Pound, Shilling, and Pence system, standing for Pounds (L), Shillings (S), and Pence (D). For over 1,200 years, this complex yet traditional format served the British economy. With the increasing modernization and global trade, the UK adopted a decimal system, making 1 pound equal to 100 new pence.

To commemorate the end of this historic era, Bradshaw & Darlington, a prestigious British numismatic firm, curated a special set:

🏛️ 1956–1967 Great Britain "Farewell to L.S.D." Coin Set (AM605)
