The 1969-1982 50 Pence Coin - Standard ReverseThe 7-sided fifty pence coin was introduced in 1969 as part of decimalisation and replaced the equivalent value ten shilling banknote. Almost 190 million coins were initially minted to supply the market.
The Reverse shows Britannia seated next to a lion, holding a trident and olive branch. The design was by Christopher Ironside. As was the practice at decimalisation, the words NEW PENCE appeared on the coin so there would be no confusion with the existing penny value (which was 240 pennies to one pound, opposed to 100 new pence to one pound after decimalisation).
The Obverse shows a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin.
