UK 2025 Stories of the Second World War BU 50p
Official UK 2025 Stories of the Second World War Brilliant Uncirculated 50p Pack
From the home front to the battlefront, the Second World War is a story of countless lives, unyielding resilience, and extraordinary courage.
Now, The Royal Mint is proud to honour these stories with a brand-new UK 50p coin.
The reverse design by Timothy Noad captures the experiences of those on the front lines and at home – featuring in incredible detail, the War Medal 1939–45, the Defence Medal, and the 1939–45 Star.
For what is believed to be the first time in living memory – two reigning Kings are featured on the same 50p: His Majesty King Charles III on the obverse and King George VI—his grandfather—on the reverse, depicted within the World War II campaign medals.
Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated finish, this coin offers a superior level of detail and finish compared to the circulating coins you’d find in your change.
- Believed to be the first time two reigning Kings have been featured on the same UK 50p coin
- Struck to a superior Brilliant Uncirculated quality.
- Developed with the expertise of the Imperial War Museums.
- Secure yours for today for just £18 (+p&p).
