In 2018 to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the Representation of the Peoples Act, the Royal Mint released a special Limited Issue Brilliant Uncirculated Representation of the Peoples Act 50p Fifty Pence Coin .
The reverse designed by Stephen Taylor depicts a British queue, to suggest a line of people waiting to cast their votes at the ballot box, while the obverse features the Fifth Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark.
The only official UK coin to celebrate the centenary of the Representation of the People Act 1918
A historic anniversary – women’s right to vote for the first time, a major victory for the suffragist movement
A reverse design by Royal Mint graphic designer Stephen Taylor inspired by posters of the period
Struck to a higher standard than the coins we use everyday
