1988 Great Britain Brilliant Uncirculated Annual 7-Coin Set

The Royal Mint annually releases an uncirculated coin collection commemorating significant events, and the 1988 set captures a memorable year. Highlights include the debut of "This Morning" with Richard & Judy, Edwina Currie's Salmonella scandal, and Sir Cliff Richard's "Mistletoe and Wine." The set features a new £1 coin designed by Derek Gorringe, showcasing a shield representing the four corners of the UK, along with the 3rd Portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by sculptor Raphael Maklouf on the obverse. Struck to a higher standard than circulating coins, these uncirculated coins are perfect for starter investments or as keepsakes for special occasions.
