A Benjamin Bunny coin and book set – new for 2017
More adventures in the vegetable patch
Benjamin Bunny ventures back to Mr. McGregor’s garden with his cousin Peter Rabbit to help him retrieve his jacket and shoes. Needless to say, their sortie into the vegetable patch doesn’t go according to plan. After lingering to gather onions and take a casual stroll, the pair find themselves trapped by an inquisitive cat, before Benjamin’s father comes to the rescue. One of Beatrix Potter’s best-loved little tales, this simple moral story is perfect for very young readers – an ideal introduction to her charming, whimsical world.
For the very first time, The Royal Mint is excited to present this storybook together with a Benjamin Bunny silver Proof 50p coin. The book features an original cover exclusive to this release, while the colour printed coin is finished to our finest Proof standard. Packaged in the style of the author’s illustrations, this box set is an original gift to inspire imaginations.
