In 2019 to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of The Gruffalo, the Royal Mint released a special Limited Issue The Gruffalo 50p Fifty Pence Gold Proof Coin struck in solid 22 Carat Gold.
The reverse designed by Magic Light Pictures features the famous Gruffalo monster while the obverse features the Fifth Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark.
These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
