Collector insights
- Design heritage: Jody Clark, Hannah Phizacklea is credited as the designer for the Non-circulating coins series. Designer attribution helps distinguish this issue from later restrikes or unofficial copies that reuse only the motif.
- Struck at: Royal Mint, Llantrisant, United Kingdom (1968-date). Confirm the mintmark on your example before comparing prices — same-year issues from different mints often trade at very different levels.
- Gold issue: Gold (.9999) — bullion demand competes with numismatic demand. Weight and fineness (not just face value) drive the melt-value floor.
- Catalogue reference: Listed as
Sp# RS6. Use this reference code when cross-checking auction archives, dealer inventories, and standard printed catalogues.
