Description Specification Summary Concorde Coins

Concorde 50th Anniversary Coin

This coin was designed by creative agency Osbourne Ross and shows Concorde in flight with the lettering - 'CONCORDE' - designed to look like a split-flap departure board with '21 JANUARY 1976' below.

Portrait Of King Charles III

The Concorde design is paired with Martin Jennings' official coinage portrait of King Charles III, as used on standard UK currency coins, with an inscription that reads 'CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 50 PENCE · 2026 ·'.

Made From Solid 22-Carat Gold

This Fifty Pence coin is struck in 15.50 grams of solid 22-carat (91.67% fine) gold with a premium proof finish, achieved with multiple strikes of hand-prepared dies for an effect that contrasts frosted devices with mirrored surfaces.

Limited Edition Official Collectable

The Royal Mint has authorised the release of just 125 of these gold proof Concorde coins in 2026 to mark the 50th anniversary. These coins have been created by the UK's national mint in partnership with Airbus and British Airways.

Premium Gift Packaging

Your official 2026 Concorde coin is supplied in a premium presentation case from The Royal Mint, complete with an information booklet and a numbered certificate of authenticity. The coin is encapsulated to preserve its finish.

50th Anniversary Of Concorde

In 2026, the world marks fifty years since Concorde began commercial operations, a moment that transformed long-distance air travel forever.

Concorde was born from an ambitious agreement between the UK and France in the early 1960s, resulting in one of the most advanced civil aircraft ever built. With its unmistakable delta-wing profile and supersonic capability, Concorde routinely cruised at more than twice the speed of sound, reducing transatlantic journeys to little more than three hours.

Operated by British Airways and Air France for nearly three decades, Concorde became synonymous with technological confidence, luxury and innovation. Its enduring reputation, reinforced by record-breaking flights and rigorous testing, continues to resonate with aviation enthusiasts worldwide.

Official Royal Mint Concorde 50p

Although Concorde has previously appeared on medals and unofficial commemoratives, it had never featured on UK legal tender until the release of this 2026 collection. 2026 Concorde coins from The Royal Mint represent the first officially licensed British coinage dedicated to the aircraft. Produced in partnership with British Airways and Airbus, the series has been created with both clever numismatic design and aviation heritage in mind.

The reverse, created by Osbourne Ross, shows Concorde in flight across the globe, with the aircraft's name presented in the style of a split-flap departure board alongside the date of its first commercial service: 21 January 1976. Polished elements introduce depth and contrast, reinforcing the premium nature of these official Royal Mint issues.

2026 Concorde UK Coin Range

The 2026 Concorde collection has been designed to cater to a diverse range of collectors with various sizes, finishes and metal options, including:

All editions share the same commemorative design and feature the official coinage portrait of King Charles III on the obverse, created by Martin Jennings. Each coin is supplied in presentation packaging that outlines Concorde's journey from development to retirement. With limited mintages across the range, selected editions may prove increasingly challenging to acquire over time, indicating the long-term collectability of this landmark series.
