Overview
A thick, golden-colored round coin featuring the right-facing profile of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. The reverse side varies by year, featuring different heraldic designs or regional symbols.
Historical significance
Introduced in 1983 to replace the Bank of England one pound note, which was being withdrawn due to the low life expectancy of paper notes in high circulation. The round version was demonetized in 2017 and replaced by the 12-sided bimetallic version to prevent counterfeiting.
Estimated value
£1.00 - £5.00 (Face value to collector value depending on the specific year and condition)
Care & preservation
Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning with abrasive chemicals or brushes as this can damage the numismatic value; if necessary, use mild soap and water and pat dry with a soft cloth.
