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. Confirm the mintmark on your example before comparing prices — same-year issues from different mints often trade at very different levels.
  • Precious metal content: Silver (.999) — bullion value provides a price floor, and many circulated examples were melted during the 1979–1980 and post-2010 silver spikes, reducing the surviving population.
  • Catalogue reference: Listed as N# 348360, Sp# RS2. Use this reference code when cross-checking auction archives, dealer inventories, and standard printed catalogues.
