2021 Decimal Commemorative Coins The Royal Mint BU collection 50p 1971 portrait

50p John Logie Baird. The Royal Mint moved from Tower Hill to a modern facility in South Wales ready to strike the new decimal coins, which would feature a new portrait of The Queen. The portrait, by Arnold Machin RA, was selected to mark the move to a decimal coinage and help people identify the new coins, and has been revived for the obverse of this 2021 coin.
