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 the official Royal Mint issue price of just £15 (+p&p).
