I received two coins from a friend from the UK, Backyard Bullion. I will show one today, and the other for next World Coin Wednesday.

50 Pence - Elizabeth II Beatrix Potter

Commemorative issue
150th anniversary of the birth of Beatrix Potter, the first in a series of official United Kingdom coins to celebrate Beatrix Potter’s life and books.

I really do not know much about this coin. But I have seen it shown by others in YouTube and if I recall correctly, by @welshstacker.

I want to be supportive of anyone here in SSG, but most specifically those who are likewise supportive of SSG. I think that @silverd510 has great initiative and creativity (as you have initiated the #piratesunday tag). I am grateful for members like him, and so I do my best to write articles using @silverd510's tags: #fiestatuesday, #worldcoinwednesday, #fiveouncefriday, #silverpornsaturday... as I have done for you with #piratesunday.
Have a wonderful evening, @stokjockey, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

I am not sure that is actually a silver 50p but just a circulating one, there is quite a few different Beatrix Potter 50p coins, the rarer ones are
Jemima Puddleduck
2018 Peter Rabbit
Flopsy Bunny

Unfortunately, yeah what @monsterjamgold said. That looks to be a circulated 50p and just cupro nickel version.

Beatrix Potter is so iconic in the UK as is Whinnie the Pooh in Canada for Children's literature as far as I can remember.
I still watch BYBs videos at around 4:30am when things are quiet while on my paperwork.
Always, with love. 🌺🤗💝🌹

Mrs BYB also pours candles, and they sent me a hand-poured Christmas Candle. Other than the Britannia and a couple of silver crowns, I really do not have many coins from the UK. I am grateful to have two from BYB. Have a wonderful evening, sis @kerrislravenhill. Take care 🥰🌺🤙 and a million Hugs and Kisses 🤗💕💋!

It is funny that I never heard about Beatrix Potter. To me, she could be a distant relative to Harry Potter...

It is like our SBA circulating dollar, and about the same size, @silvertop. It is a pretty circulating coin. I dunno the composition of the coin, LOL!
