The series consists of 15 coins each featuring one of Potter’s delightful characters, and even a special coin which includes elements celebrating Beatrix as the artist behind some of the best-loved characters in children’s literature.
Who wouldn’t want a 50p coin with a portrait of Tommy Brock the irritable Badger, Samual Whiskers a rat who’s full name is Samuel Jeremiah Bartholomew Edmond Cornelius Whiskers, and Mr Tod the Red Fox, to name but a few. With the release of the 2020 Peter Rabbit 50p Coin the Royal Mint have announced that this would be the last in the series which is a shame as there were a number of characters we would have loved to see as 50p coins.
