One Pound - 1983 to 2021 - Price Guide
By 1980, it had become apparent, that with the general decline in purchasing power, the £1 unit of currency was more appropriate to a coin than a banknote. The note was in constant use and, on average, each note only lasted nine months. The new coin and design was issued on 21 April 1983.
To make it easy to identify, the round £1 coin was thicker than other coins, while its yellow colour allowed it to stand out from the cupro-nickel silver coins already in circulation. The weight of the coin was largely decided based on cost and the need to allow for higher denomination coins in due course.
Through the years, multiple reverse designs were used for this denomination.
