This 2019 50 Years of the 50p celebrates 50 years ago when a revolutionary new coin entered circulation ahead of the decimal switchover. This special anniversary coin pays tribute to Hugh Conway and his team. Tasked with creating a coin easily distinguishable by touch and sight that would still roll smoothly, their perfectly engineered solution gave us the world’s first seven-sided coin.
