During decimalisation, the value of the pound did not change, only they way it was divided up. A pound coin would be worth the same. However a 1960's pound coin will have been demonetised when the new pound coins where introduced in 1983. This means that officialy coin is worthless. A collector however will likely pay over face value for the coin.

∙ 13y agoA British 1960 cupro-nickel Sixpence (Elizabeth II), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £10 GBP. If it has been circulated, not much.
The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
