The most sought-after Winnie the Pooh 50p coins yet!
The final coin in the Winnie the Pooh 50p series has been issued today, marking an end to one of the biggest sell-out stories of recent years. Secure yours here in .925 Sterling Silver >>
And, considering the drastic edition limit cuts to the 2022 coins, THOUSANDS of collectors are set to miss out on completing their collection…
Celebrating 95 years of fun-filled adventure, these charming 50p coins each feature designs of the best-loved characters from A. A. Milne’s original stories, with original illustrations from E. H. Shepard.
When the first three coins were issued in 2020, they took the collecting world by storm. They were so popular that the very first Silver Proof 50p featuring Winnie the Pooh himself – SOLD-OUT in LESS THAN 24 HOURS!
Tigger 50p sells out
Collector demand continued into 2021 with the second series of Winnie the Pooh 50p coins.
Featuring some of Winnie the Pooh’s most trusted companions, these coins each had an edition limit of JUST 18,000 for their Silver Proof specification.
In fact, so popular were these coins that the Tigger 50p is no longer available at The Royal Mint.
As collectors anticipated the issue of the final three coins in the series in 2022, at The Westminster Collection, we were already expecting demand to outweigh supply.
JUST 6,000 ISSUED WORLDWIDE
That’s because JUST 6,000 of each of the Silver Proof 50p coins have been issued worldwide – one third of the edition limit of the sell-out 2020 and 2021 coins!
12,000 collectors missed out on the Eeyore Silver Proof 50p as it sold-out in a matter of hours at The Royal Mint.
Undoubtedly, this final 50p, which features a design of the most popular Winnie the Pooh characters, will be just as popular. Unfortunately, this means many will likely miss out on securing it for their collection.
How much is the Winnie the Pooh 50p worth?
The first and last issues in any coin series are hugely popular with collectors.
When a theme is as universally popular as Winnie the Pooh, there are no surprises collectors rushed to get their hands on the UK’s first Winnie the Pooh 50p.
Much like first editions of best-selling books, or the first run of banknotes, UK-first coin issues can sell for well over their retail price on secondary market sites.
And, with edition limits as low as this, we knew the sell-out potential for this coin was high, and collectors knew it too.
Don’t miss out on the Winnie the Pooh and Friends 50p!
If you want to be one of JUST 6,000 lucky collectors to own this BRAND-NEW coin in .925 Sterling Silver, you’ll need to act extremely fast.

Phone home… NEW coins announced to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of E.T. the extra-terrestrial this year!
This year marks the 40th Anniversary of E.T. the extra-terrestrial, the blockbuster movie first released in 1982.
And to celebrate, Universal Pictures have announced that the Steven Spielberg classic will be re-released and shown in the IMAX format from today – Friday 12th August.
For any film fan the opportunity to see this classic on the big screen is a treat, but to see it on a giant IMAX screen, with its accompanying huge sound system makes it nearly unmissable.
And so I’m delighted to confirm that a BRAND NEW collection of 50 cent coins celebrating the 40th anniversary of the alien protagonist ‘E.T. the extra-terrestrial’ WILL be released a little later this year.
The exact designs are yet to be revealed but the 50c coins will be issued by Pitcairn Islands and have been fully approved by Her Majesty the Queen.
With E.T. carrying a worldwide fanbase, we’re expecting demand to outweigh availability for the precious metal ranges of these brand new coins.
Register your interest below to be the first to hear updates about the 2022 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial 40th Anniversary coin release.
James Webb Space Telescope images inspire us to celebrate the wonders of the universe!
Read on as we take a closer look at the latest images from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, and our stunning collection of commemoratives celebrating the Wonders of the Universe.
Our universe is a place of beauty, awe, and unknowns; an expanse full of intrigue that has drawn our gaze for centuries. From prehistoric cave paintings of the night sky to the stellar images sent back from NASA’s Hubble Telescope, we continue to fuel our fascination with what lies beyond what the eye can see…
In recent weeks, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope – a new telescope kitted out with the latest technology – has captured some genuinely breath-taking images of our universe, captivating audiences and making global headlines.
The Webb Telescope provides us with insights into the “deepest” reaches of the known universe, offering up some of the most detailed images of the cosmos ever seen.
Take a look below at some of the outstanding images from Webb’s observations of our universe…
Carina Nebula – also known as the Cosmic Cliffs, this is the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region called NGC 3324. Its “peaks” are about 7 light-years high. 
The Cartwheel Galaxy and companion galaxies – formed as the result of a high-speed collision that occurred about 400 million years ago, and is composed of two colourful rings. 
Southern Ring Nebula – a planetary nebula approximately 2,500 light-years away. 
Stephan’s Quintet – a visual grouping of five galaxies depicting how galaxies interact with one another. 
Webb’s First Deep Field image of galaxy cluster SMACS 0723. This is the “deepest” image of space we’ve seen to date, with thousands of galaxies coming into view.
Experts estimate that the universe stretches out infinitely – and with all that space to fill the scale of the planets, stars, and nebulas within it is tough to comprehend…
But today, you can take a tiny part of our universe home with our Wonders of the Universe Commemorative Set – and each commemorative is small enough to fit in your pocket!
The Wonders of the Universe Commemorative Set celebrates eight of the most magnificent and marvellous entities within our universe including The Milky Way – home to our Solar System, black holes, and supernovas!
Each commemorative is struck to a superior proof-like finish, with full-colour images individually applied. Your commemorative set comes with a FREE presentation case (worth £9.95), alongside information on each ‘wonder’ within the collection. And you can even pay for your set in instalments of as little as £15.
Just 995 sets were ever produced, so you won’t want to delay if you’d like to secure one of our remaining commemorative sets. Only a limited number remain available. I’d hate for you to miss out on a collectable item that’s truly out of this world.
