Comment
This is the LARGE size - it was reduced in 1997 from 30.0mm to 27.3mm (link below) diameter.Interesting fact
The 50p coin featuring Elizabeth II (Dolphins - large type) from Gibraltar is a unique design, as it is the only coin in the standard circulation series that features a different obverse (front) design than the standard portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Instead, it features a design of two dolphins swimming together, which is a nod to Gibraltar's maritime history and its iconic dolphin-watching tours.
