    I used to file the corners off them to fake 10p pieces. I made a small fortune, mind you, I did start with a large fortune!

    I have a Peter Rabbit 50p. My little boy treasures it. Didn’t know there was a Paddington coin.

    There have been 4 Paddington 50p
    At the tower at the station at the palace and at St. Paul’s catherderal
    Look out for Kew Gardens 50p they were a very low mintage and are worth a pretty penny

    Yes and two pounds. Don't start collecting as it gets expensive with how often Westminster Collection have new coins to sell :D The cricket world cup set are some of my favourite 50s and the air force collection like the Red Arrows one are some of the best 2 pounds. The only 50 pence I don't have is the original 2009 Kew Gardens that goes for over 100 quid on Ebay as they only made 210000. The lettered ten pences are extremely difficult to find as well.
