red_stag88 Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 Right you Olde Buffers, I have a 2p coin from 1975 with "New Pence" instead of "Two pence" Was '75 the first year of the new munitary system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red_stag88 Posted April 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 I found one stamped New Pence with the date 1979, so I guess 1980 was when they realised Two pence would make more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
