I suspect that you are asking about the 1970 British Proof set - the maroon cardboard cover is labeled "Coinage of Great Britain" on the top line, "and Northern Ireland" on the bottom line and "LSD" [it should actually be "£sd", the symbols for Pounds, Shillings and Pence] and "1970" in the middle in large type. The official name of the country is actually the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"; hence the labeling.
According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, the set is valued at US$24 in the original packaging, although in my experience they are generally sold in the $15-$20 range.
