This set features two coins telling the story of the UK’s membership in the European Union: a historic 1973 50p coin which marked the United Kingdom’s accession into the European Economic Community, and a new 2020 UK 50p marking the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union. the set was released on the 31st January 2020 - the day the United Kingdom left the EU, and sold out the same day.
The 2020 coin is in Brilliant Uncirculated grade, while the 1973 coin is taken from circulation so "may show signs of usage". |
