Comment
Although the design was originally used in 2007 with Ian Rank-Broadley's fourth portrait to commemorate the centenary of the Scouting Movement, it wasn't until 2009 when a gold piedfort was issued as part of the 16-piece sets to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the 50 pence denomination. The 2019 issue features Jody Clark's fifth portrait and forms part of the 5-coin British Culture set celebrating 50 years of the 50p. This design was also struck in copper-nickel, silver proof, silver piedfort and gold proof.Issue Limit: 50

Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Scouting Movement in the United Kingdom. The coin's design features an image of a scout holding a Union Jack flag, surrounded by the words "Be Prepared" - the motto of the Scouting Movement. The coin's gold finish and piedfort design (a technique that creates a thicker, more detailed coin) make it a unique and valuable collector's item for coin enthusiasts and scouting enthusiasts alike.
