SPOTTING this iconic Christmas character on a 50p coin could make it worth 21 times its face value
Oct 18, 2024 at 06:00 pm
Each year, The Royal Mint releases a 50p coin featuring Raymond Briggs' beloved festive character, The Snowman.
A RARE 50p coin featuring The Snowman character could be worth 21 times its face value.
Each year, The Royal Mint releases a new 50p coin to mark the festive season.
The coin features Raymond Briggs' beloved character, The Snowman, in a different scene.
Over the past seven years, the coins have become a must-have for collectors.
The latest design features The Snowman putting a star on top of the Christmas tree.
But coin fans will have to buy the coin directly from The Royal Mint website as they won't be entering general circulation.
However, collectors could be left feeling frosty after discovering that previous editions of the 50p can sell for a pretty penny on sites such as eBay.
For example, the Royal Mint's 2018 edition of The Snowman coin, which features the iconic image of him flying in the sky, sold for £10.50 this October.
The 2019 edition, depicting the lovable cartoon as he comes to life, sold for £10.99 this month also.
A full breakdown of how much each sold for on eBay this month can be seen below.
Experts at Change Checker said: "The Snowman 50ps can fetch a pretty penny on the secondary market, with the 2018 and 2019 editions selling for up to 21 times their face value.
"If this data is anything to go by, the 2024 The Snowman 50p is sure to be popular with collectors."
However, it is important to remember that a coin is only worth how much a buyer is willing to pay for it.
So if you are keen to flog one of your pieces online you should keep that in mind.
Character coins are a fan favourite amongst collectors.
You may have seen recently The Royal Mint released a 50p coin featuring the Gruffalo to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its books.
The Sun recently rounded up a full list of quirky rare coins that could be worth £356, which you can check out here.
