Description: 1983 Royal Arms One Pound Coin Upside Down Edge Lettering Error. A 1983 Royal Arms One Pound Coin Upside Down Edge Lettering Error" refers to a British one pound coin minted in 1983 where the edge inscription, usually reading "DECUS ET TUTAMEN" (Latin for "Shield and Defence"), is printed upside down, considered a rare error by collectors due to the manufacturing mishap during the coin's production. Key points about this error: What's upside down: The edge lettering, specifically the phrase "DECUS ET TUTAMEN", is printed rotated so that it appears upside down when looking at the coin. Value to collectors: This error can be highly sought after by coin collectors, potentially fetching a significantly higher price than a standard 1983 one pound coin due to its rarity. How to check: Carefully examine the edge of the coin to see if the lettering is oriented correctly or upside down.
