Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 50p Iguanodon coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the prehistoric creature, Iguanodon, in a standing position, which is different from the usual depiction of this dinosaur as a quadruped. This design choice was made to highlight the coin's theme of "Evolution" and to emphasize the Iguanodon's status as a powerful and impressive creature.
