Comment
This silver issue was only available in Brilliant Uncirculated and was part of the complete set of 29 coins to commemorate the London 2012 Olympic Games. It was also issued individually as well as being available in copper-nickel and gold proof. Issue Limit: 30,000Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50p coin is that it features an error in the design, where the volleyball depicted on the coin has 16 panels instead of the usual 12. This mistake was only noticed after the coins were already in circulation, making it a unique and collectible item for coin enthusiasts.
