Stegosaurus 2024 UK 50p Silver Proof Coin

The Coin Company is proud to present Stegosaurus 2024 UK 50p Silver Proof Coin by The Royal Mint.

With unmistakable diamond-shaped plates running down its spine culminating in an imposing four-spiked tail, Stegosaurus often tops the list as one of the most recognisable prehistoric creatures of all time with a level of popularity to match. Travel back in time 150 million years and revisit this legendary creature of the Late Jurassic period with a new commemorative coin.

Designed by palaeo-artist Robert Nicholls, the man behind the reverse designs for both the Dinosauria and Mary Anning collections, this coin features Stegosaurus on all fours, proudly displaying its signature spinal plates, as the ‘Sophie’ skeleton sits in the foreground. This artwork was also developed with the expert guidance of Professor Paul Barrett from the Natural History Museum.

KEY FEATURES:

• Celebrates one of the most legendary dinosaurs that ever roamed the Earth
• The reverse has been designed by Robert Nicholls, the artist behind the previous Tales of the Earth collections
• Both the coin design and the accompanying packaging illustrations are based on scientifically accurate reconstructions
• Developed in conjunction with the Natural History Museum, London
