A new 50p coin has had its official launch in the UK today (Monday).
The Royal Mint has launched a commemorative 50p celebrating the Birmingham Commonwealth Games. The coins represent each of the home nations with special colour editions added to the collection.
The coin was first unveiled in The Royal Mint’s Annual Sets in January, celebrating key moments for 2022. Now, less than 40 days to go until the Games gets underway, the coin, inspired by the iconic design of the library of Birmingham, is available to purchase.
