EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from November 1969 takes us back to a time when the private mint of Richard Williams was in full swing, churning out thousands of ten shilling notes. The former Co-op shop at Deganwy, North Wales served as the backdrop for this bustling scene, where an intriguing notice caught the attention of passersby. In bold letters, it proclaimed that English 50 new pence sterling notes were available in exchange for coins. The image captures not only the essence of finance and money but also offers a glimpse into the economic landscape of the 1960s. The sight of workers diligently operating printing machines within the walls of this once thriving shop evokes a sense of industry and productivity. As we delve deeper into this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded that currency is more than just paper or metal; it represents power, value, and trust. This particular moment showcases how individuals eagerly sought to exchange their coins for these newly minted banknotes - perhaps eager to experience a touch of novelty or simply adapt to changing times. Memory Lane Prints has expertly preserved this piece from history's puzzle - an emblematic representation not only of financial transactions but also societal shifts during one fateful day in November 1969.
