Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Rupert Bear 50p coin is that it features a unique design that was created by the artist, Emma Noble, who is known for her work on various children's books and TV shows. The design features Rupert Bear sitting on a tree stump, surrounded by flowers and leaves, and was inspired by the classic Rupert annuals that were popular in the UK during the 1950s and 60s. The coin's design is not only a tribute to the beloved character, but also a celebration of the artist's work and the nostalgia of a bygone era.
