Ice Age Giants: The Woolly Rhino Official UK 50p Pack

Today, you can own a UK 50p featuring a pre-historic giant – The Woolly Rhino.

This beast of the ice age weighed around 2 tonnes, with a sabre like horn that helped it forage for food in the snow and was kept warm by its double-layered wool coat.

Celebrating some of the world’s greatest Ice Age Giants, this is the second release in The Royal Mint. Issued in partnership with the Natural History Museum, ensuring scientifically accurate detail…

  • Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated Quality – meaning it is free of the marks and scratches you’d find on coins in your change.
  • Each coin comes presented in official Royal Mint presentation pack, featuring information carefully curated in collaboration with the Natural History Museum about the Woolly Rhino.
  • Specially designed by renowned paleo-artist, Robert Nicholls, the design features the Woolly Rhino in incredible detail, alongside its intricate skeleton underneath.
  • The second coin in a three-coin series celebrating some of the most iconic Ice Age Giants that ever roamed the earth.

You can own the official UK Woolly Rhino 50p for the official Royal Mint issue price of just £12 (+p&p).
