2011 Handball Fifty Pence piece, commemorating the 2012 Summer Olympics. This 50p is part of a collection of twenty-nine designs minted and circulated. The Royal Mint hosted a competition for the designs of this collection and received 30,000 submissions from the public. Natasha Ratcliffe submitted the chosen handball design, and also the chosen wheelchair rugby design. In her design, Ratcliffe wanted to capture how dynamic the game is. France and Norway took gold at the 2012 Olympic handball events. The reverse of this 2011 Handball 50p holds Ratcliffe's design. This consists of a handball player in mid jump ball in hand, with a handball court in the background. Above is the 2012 Summer Olympics' Logo and below are the worlds '50 PENCE'. On the obverse is Ian Rank-Broadley's portrait of Her Majesty the Queen. The 2011 Handball 50ps are struck in cupronickel alloy to standard Fifty Pence piece specifications (weight: 8.00 grams, diameter: 27.30 millimetres). 1,676,500 of these coins entered circulation. Please note that the photograph on this page is a stock image. The coin you will receive is one that entered circulation and therefore will look like the coins that you find in your change, comparable condition to the coin in the photo.
