2008 50 Pence Last Seated Britannia

In 2008, the Royal Mint introduced new reverse designs on our coinage. One of the design coins being replaced was that of the seated Britannia which had been a feature on the Fifty Pence coin since its introduction in 1969. To mark the final use of this design on the Fifty Pence coin, the Royal Mint struck some in silver proof and it is these special coins that we offer you here, but we have a limited number available.
