New Royal Mint 50p Unveiled Marking 100 Years of Iconic Children's Characters
The final coin in the three-piece collection starts at £15 and features Winnie-the-Pooh, Eeyore, Piglet and Tigger, the Royal Mint said.
- On Thursday, The Royal Mint released the final 50p coin in its Winnie-the-Pooh collection, featuring Winnie-the-Pooh, Eeyore, Piglet, and Tigger in a design developed with The Walt Disney Company.
- The coin completes a three-part series marking 100 years of the stories by Milne, following previous releases that celebrated kindness and loyalty within the Hundred Acre Wood.
- Available to purchase from Thursday, the new edition comes in silver proof and brilliant uncirculated colour finishes, with prices starting at £15, and collectors are queuing to access the website.
- Lucy Mackenzie, director at The Royal Mint, said "Winnie-the-Pooh has been part of childhood for a hundred years," noting the series honors the comfort and joy these characters have brought to generations.
- Recently, The Royal Mint also issued a 50p coin marking the 50th anniversary of Aardman Animations; Peter Lord, Aardman co-founder, said the coin's artistry reminded him of his studio's work with Wallace and Gromit.
