• Official UK Silver Proof double thickness 50p honouring Rosalind Franklin in the 100th year since her birth
 

This double-thickness UK 50p has been issued to mark the life and remarkable achievements of Rosalind Franklin. One of Britain’s greatest scientists, best known for her work to help us better understand DNA.

It’s an exceptional-looking coin and a fitting tribute, with her link to DNA really well executed, but the main reason for the excitement revolves around what happened to its predecessor. You see this is the second UK coin in the “Innovation in Science” series. The first, a Stephen Hawking Silver Proof Piedfort 50p sold out 2,500 coins within a couple of hours of launch.

This Rosalind Franklin Piedfort 50p has been limited to just 1,500 worldwide, which also saw a quick sell-out at the Royal Mint.
