Tales of the Earth Megalosaurus Fifty Pence, part of The Royal Mint Experience's 2020 Strike Your Own range. This Dinosauria Collection 50p was available for only two months in 2020, and natural history lovers at The Royal Mint Experience sought to channel the fearsome Megalosaurus in snapping them up. Robert Nicholls' reverse design drew upon his own expertise in palaeontology as well as the Natural History Museum's extensive archives. The scarred and muscular Megalosaurus is joined by a representation of one such piece in the collection: an original William Buckland fossilised find. To the obverse of this 8.00 gram Strike Your Own 50p lies Jody Clark's definitive effigy of Elizabeth II. Both of the designs present on this 27.30 millimetre cupronickel coin hold impressive detail thanks to Strike Your Own's BU process. Included is the original illustrated Royal Mint Experience wallet, which capsules the coin alongside relevant insights.

2020 Tales Of The Earth Obverse 

Featuring Elizabeth II by the Mint's own Jody Clark alongside legend: 'ELIZABETH II ·  D ·  G ·  REG ·  F ·  D · 50 PENCE · 2020 ·'.

Strike Your Own Megalosaurus Reverse 

In a design by paleo-artist Robert Nicholls, a feathered Megalosaurus with teeth bared shows off its gnarly scarring. A fragment of jaw complete with teeth is found below. Its finder - William Buckland - is commemorated through the inscription 'BUCKLAND 1824'. Lastly, 'MEGALOSAURUS', science's first ever recognised dinosaur, titles the reverse. 

Royal Mint Experience 50p Specification 

This 8.00 gram UK 50 Pence is struck in cupronickel alloy to a 27.30 millimetre specification. This Strike Your Own Megalosaurus is finished to a collectable brilliant uncirculated finish. 

Presentation: Dinosauria Strike Your Own 

We include the original Strike Your Own fully illustrated Tales of the Earth folder. The card wallet also contains a built-in coin capsule to ensure your Dinosauria Megalosaurus is sufficiently protected. Only lucky visitors to The Royal Mint Experience between 13 February and 15 March 2020 could strike this entertaining coin. 

Pre-Owned Mantel Megalosaurus 50 Pence

This Strike Your Own coin was only obtainable through south Wales' Royal Mint Experience and is therefore pre-owned. You will receive a dinosaur 50p in fantastic condition, reflective in the comparable images above. Please be aware that minor toning is common on Strike Your Own coins and so should be considered normal.
