The Royal Mint stopped issuing the pound note in 1984. However those already in circulation were still legal tender until 1988. Once the note ceased to be legal tender - you could only exchange them in banks for pound coins. All other retail outlets refused (quite rightly) to accept the nots for payment.

This change reflected broader shifts in currency and the simplification of the monetary system in the UK.

What is the most valuable New Pence coin from 1971-2014?

Unless they are in mint condition, none of them have any significant value, and even then it would not be much. All years of issue of the 1 and 2 Pence coins are still potentially in circulation, so are worth 1 and 2 Pence respectively. The decimal New Half Penny and Half Penny coins were last issued for circulation in 1983 and were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in December 1984. The larger pre-1991 5 Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1991. The larger pre-1993 10 Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1993. The larger pre-1998 50 Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1998. These coins have little or no value. Coins dated after the dates above, are worth whatever is inscribed on them.
