The Winnie the Pooh storybooks are classics that have been handed down through generations of readers. Now the loveable Pooh Bear, the star of the books, has been captured on a 22 carat gold coin in one of E. H. Shepard’s charming illustrations. The coin has been finished to Proof standard, showing Pooh with a pot of his favourite snack, honey, and joined by a friendly bee that unites the coins in the collection.
This is the first time Winnie the Pooh has featured on a coin struck by The Royal Mint and it is approved by Buckingham Palace. Just 525 gold Proof coins are available and each comes in a case with a beautifully designed booklet all about Pooh Bear.
