Official New UK 2019 50p Release

Commemorative 50p coins have taken off in recent years, with everything from significant historical anniversaries to the most beloved faces from modern popular culture all earning their place on UK coinage and being snapped up by collectors.

Designed by Stephen Raw, the coin depicts the silhouette of the eponymous detective, framed by the titles of his most legendary adventuresin minute font to encourage our ‘inner detective’ to make use of that essential tool, the magnifying glass. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated finish, your Sherlock Holmes™ 50p is free from the blemishes and imperfections of circulating coins, giving it the supreme quality that collectors look for.
