The 12-Sided Coins that Shaped History

Today, you can secure two iconic British coins which changed the course of history.

Protectively housed in the popular collector’s frame are the 1937 Threepence, issued in the year of George VI’s Coronation, alongside the UK 2017 Nations of the Crown £1.

But what makes these coins so significant?

They were the first 12-sided British coins ever issued, and here’s why you need them in your collection:

• The UK 1937 ‘thrupenny bit’ was struck in the year of King George VI’s Coronation – its tangible link to this historical event makes it extremely sought-after
• As the first 12-sided British coin issued for circulation, it became especially popular during WWII as it was easy to identify in a pocket full of change during blackouts
• Also housed in your collection is the UK’s 2017 12-sided £1 coin, finished to a Brilliant Uncirculated quality
• This new 12-sided shape was introduced after 34 years of the familiar round £1 coin, taking on the shape our parents and grandparents grew up with
• This was the first major change to the £1 coin since it entered circulation in 1983, replacing the £1 note.

But, considering the historical significance of both of these coins, only a limited number are available.
