Wicked 2026 UK 50p Silver Proof Colour Coin
The Royal MintThe Coin Company is proud to present the Wicked 2026 UK 50p Silver Proof Colour Coin by The Royal Mint.
On 27 September 2006, the smash-hit musical Wicked debuted in London’s West End and is the longest-running show at the Apollo Victoria Theatre to date. Featuring a Grammy Award–winning soundtrack written and composed by Stephen Schwartz, and a spellbinding script by Winnie Holzman, Wicked has been hailed as ‘one of the West End’s true modern classics’ (Metro) and epitomises West End musical theatre at its finest.
Based on the best-selling novel Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire, the musical’s story reveals the decisions and events that shape the destinies of two unlikely university friends on their journey to becoming Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
Featuring unforgettable songs such as ‘Defying Gravity’, ‘Popular’ and ‘For Good’, along with a stage production that is as captivating as the story itself, the magic of Wicked continues to dazzle and enthral. Now, this UK coin range from The Royal Mint pays tribute to the show’s enduring popularity.
