Many of them remain in change, but they change hands for a much higher value when people look to add more 50p coins to their collection. Then comes the 2017 Jeremy Fisher 50p with 9.9 million coins, and the 2017 Tom Kitten has a 9.5 million mintage.

The second 50p coin with the highest mintage was the 2016 Peter Rabbit coin at 19.9 million, but the mintage of the Potter coins dropped significantlyafter thatr. Some 25,000,000 Benjamin Bunnys, designed by Emma Noble, were issued in 2017, making them the most popular 50p coins in the series. The 2017 Benjamin Bunny coins were one of the first 50 p coins released in 2017 to celebrate Beatrix Potter’s life. If you wanted to buy one to add to your collection, eBay would be the best place to buy one. There are currently no uncirculated coins available to buy new from the Royal Mint.

They would likely have pulled out of the sale and not parted with the money, perhaps… Remember, just because it’s a completed listing, this doesn’t mean the buyer ended up paying that price! If you have an uncirculated version, it may be worth closer to £3. Overall, a circulated Benjamin Bunny 50p is worth around £1, plus the buyer would need to pay for any postage and packaging. One of the most recent prices of the Benjamin Button “rare” silver coin was £25,000 (yes, thousands!) when we looked on eBay, and one had sold for 99p the following day. You may have seen in the press that Peter Rabbit coins were bought for hundreds of pounds on eBay, though the price can also be very low at around 50p – £1 for Benjamin Bunny (so its face value). The coins in the Beatrix Potter 50p collection are often sold far above face value. Sometimes, it will depend on the quality of the coins (so uncirculated versions, with no general damage, will go for more), but higher prices can be down to what the seller prices it at (that doesn’t mean they sell). This actually makes the coin the most likely to be found, as some of the other 50ps in the collection have a far lower mintage of 1.4 million.īut, if you go searching, they appear to have different prices for the same product. There are 25 million of the Beatrix Potter Benjamin Button coins minted in circulation. The 2017 Benjamin Bunny 50p coin is available widely in circulation and in unused forms (if you want to buy one brand new).
