Hello and welcome back to Coins and More UK. I hope everyone is having a fantastic week and in today's video you guessed it, we're going to be looking at one of the latest coin releases by the Royal Mint. So just before we crack on with this video, I just want to again apologise that the videos just lately are a few and far in between. It's been absolutely hectic in the Coins and More UK household. Obviously I've got the kids at home at the moment and I'm currently unable to work so life has changed quite a bit. Just recently and it's took quite a lot of getting used to it, it's very hectic so I've not had much time to do and watch at the moment but yeah I will be trying to get the videos out when I can. On the news which I'm very excited to share with you all, I'm going to post a picture up right now. There we go. Yeah we have a very excited turn-outs that we have got baby number four on the way due sometime in September. I'm guessing this is one of the things that happens when you're in lockdown and there's not much else to do. But now baby number four is on the way and we are really excited. I can't wait. We've got three boys already so it would be nice for a girl but it was a boy yeah we're more than happy regardless. So yeah baby number four is on the way and yeah I will share some updates with you as the as things progress. Okay so this is the coin we're going to be looking at today. Let's talk about a month or I think a month or five weeks to get here but there was some errors with the information inside this booklet. So yeah I think they suspended all deliveries to amend the information that was inside. I'll show you what it was in a minute but of course we are going to be looking at today the Decimorday 50p coin. I don't mind how long it took to get this because I do absolutely love this design and you can see them got some new chillings, half pennies. It's just a fantastic coin. I do love this design so much and I can't wait to receive the other version of this coin in my 2021 annual which I'm still awaiting on. I ordered that I'm really stable. It's still not turned up yet but I'm sure it will and it will work with the way. But without further do let's grab this book pack open and let's have a look what's inside shall we? Okay here we go. Let's have a little look and then we'll go through the... Oh God, it's rough to good start. I can't get this coin open. So yeah I do all this so you don't have to at all. Okay let's whack you out and let's so there we go another another shot of the coin. Really nice. I can't stop looking at this. And again we've got some coin specifications quite a deep broy uncirculated reverse designer Dominique Evans and of course as always the reverse designer is Jodie Clark on this one. So making change to the anniversary of Decimorday has been celebrated with a new official United Kingdom coin. I 50p the 50 years. Wow how cool is that. So let's have a look inside this booklet. Let's see what else we've got. And of course anytime you join this video just pause if you want to have a further read of this content. So Decimorday was a milestone moment in the United Kingdom's coinage story. Changing the nation's currency was an important part of modernizing Britain to bring it in line with other nations around the world. It was a huge undertaking for the moment and remains one of our greatest challenges and successes. There we go. Needport trait. Mary Gillick and Arnold Machen. So a new port trait was issued for decimalisation. Oh I said it without messing it up. We've got 15th of February 1971. There's D-Day for decimal. That's what the old New Pants 10p coin. We've got these shillings up there. That's really nice. Let's have a look what else we've got in here. Time for change. So people were fond of the pre decimal coins and news of such momentous change naturally caused concern. Decimalisation officially took place in February 1971. But five years of careful, treporation took place with the changes to come explained by leaflets, postures and television transmissions. So they've got some more shillings. Put the one shill in half penny. The one penny, half crown. I do love them coins. On the far thing, the world lovely coins. It was a shame to see some of these designs go. Now we've got the new penny, the new pants. Yeah, a lot of these coins had the new pants on. Now we're just used to seeing five pence, ten pence on the coins now. And again, we've just got some information about the coins. Just there. So if you don't want to pause and have a read, please feel free to do so. We've of course got some more information about the 50p coin. The 50p with its revolutionary seven sided design. First appeared in 1969 and there's now and is now in its 52nd year. Now here we go. Now this is what was wrong in this is why they had to delay a lot of orders. Because a few that were sent out and did get received, it's the design for 2020. Now this is where they went wrong. So obviously in this one it's correct 2021. But on this bit there, it's a 2020 and that's why a lot of these packs were either recalled, sent back, or it had to wait just a bit longer for delivery because they did have to amend this information. Because obviously they're only sending out wrong information with these 50p coins at the end of the day, you know, the cost ten pound each. And you know, you do everyone does one bit of consistency and the correct information. But of course, yeah, the roll meant to did make a mistake. And the bulk packs before this one said the design for 2020 and not 2021 as it should have been. So yeah, what a polar bear roll meant. Come on. Get your heads on. And then we've just got a bit more information just there. The 50p coin struck to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Decimal Day features of a verse design by Dominique Evans. And they had some more information just there. And some really nice illustrations as well. And a lot of these old pre-decimal coins in all their glory and the worst on us. Some lovely designs. I'm going to say I'll see what else we've got. Okay, zoom. Go on, zoom. Get my hand in the way. It should zoom on. There we go. Okay, the coins that were in place to flow in and the chill out at decimalisation corresponded exactly to the old coins in this size and right alongside their pre-decimal twins for some time. The new coins were designed by Christopher Einstein and were a part of a suite of designs produced for Britain's new decimalised coinage. And then we're on the portrait. I think we've seen this a minute ago. And again, we'll just back to the coin specifications. So let's fold you back up. That's really cool. I do quite like that booklet. It's just a shame we've got some of that information wrong inside. I'm out of weight so long to get this coin book. It's worth it because I do love this design. It really is nice.
