Description: Build or finish your 'Coin Hunt' collection with some of the best Britannia 50p Coins.From the years 1969-1997 the 50p coin was the large version of 30mm diameter and from 1997-2008 the 50p coin diameter shrank to 27.3mm, which is the current size for all circulation 50 pence coins. History & Valuable 50p Coins:The original reverse design of the Britannia coin was designed by Christopher Ironside. The last Britannia 50p coin was produced in 2008 and was replaced by the Royal Shield. During the year of 2008, both 50p coin versions (Britannia & Shield) were produced by the Royal Mint, with the Britannia design having a very low mintage of only 3,500,000 coins. The lowest & most valuable 50p coins in the Britannia series are those that have no general circulation or at best, a very low circulation. The scarce dates are: 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1995 & 1996, which only had coins produced for coin sets. The 2008 Britannia (the last!) is the lowest 'general circulated' minted coin in the series and may prove, in time, to be one of the most valuable. IMPORTANT - From 1982 onward, the 50p Coin was marked 'FIFTY PENCE' Condition: (In general terms)- Proof Coins - These are carefully selected from coin sets, but may or may not have some very light toning, normal- BU (Brilliant Uncirculated), also known as UNC or BUNC) from coin sets, but may or may not have some light toning, normal. In addition, it is not uncommon to have a couple of light minting marks/scratches on these coins. Coin Picture(s):* 50p coins from 1982 onward display 'FIFTY PENCE', coins prior to this date illustrate 'NEW PENCE' on the face * A standard 'stock' image (BU or Proof) is used and is for illustrative purposes only, which is not necessary the coins' condition/appearance Coin Appearance: * Proof coins 1971-1979 inclusive do not have a two-tone/mirror-like image, this is due to the Royal Mint changing their production process. In general, these coins have the appearance of a modern BU finish, albeit, they are proof coins. Listed 1974 - Brit. (carbon spots) - Listed with a discount, noting some very small carbon spots to one side ONLY (some highlighted) - rest of the coin is excellent.
