An icon of children’s literature

A book and 50p coin set presented together for the very first time

Mr. McGregor’s garden proves too much of a temptation to Peter Rabbit. The gardener doesn’t take kindly to rabbits pilfering his vegetables and when he spots the blue-coated bunny up to no good, a series of escapades ensue. Peter’s antics and eventual escape continue to delight each new generation of young readers.

The Royal Mint is excited to release this silver Proof 50p coin presented in a box complete with the book that launched the ‘little tales’. The book features an original cover designed exclusively for this set and on the colour-printed coin, you’ll find one of the most famous images of Peter Rabbit. Give them a timeless gift, complete with a beautiful silver keepsake.
