Royal Mint: Atlantic salmon and King 50p coin rarest in circulation

A 50p with an Atlantic salmon on one side and the King’s portrait on the other is the rarest such coin in circulation, says the Royal Mint.

It has replaced the Kew Gardens coin, which had topped the 50p charts of collectibles for the past 15 years.

The official maker of British coins, which is based in Llantrisant, Rhondda Cynon Taf, has published its 2023 mintage figures for UK coins in circulation.

It confirmed that just 200,000 of the Atlantic salmon 50p have been released to UK banks and post offices, 10,000 fewer than a Kew Gardens coin.
