This new penny was introduced in 1971 as part of the decimal reform. It was modified in 1982, when the word "new" was dropped from the reverse (KM 927). A new bust of the queen was adopted in 1985 ([[Great Britain 1986 penny|KM 935]]). It was converted to copper-plated steel in 1998. A silver penny (KM 898) was struck for the Maundy sets.<br />
