The Gruffalo’s Child, the beloved sequel to The Gruffalo, is celebrating its 20th anniversary. The Royal Mint has released a highly anticipated 50p coin to mark this special occasion. We at CPM are thrilled to offer our valued customers the Silver Proof edition of this special release. It is highly sought-after, making it a must-have for fans of the series and discerning collectors alike.
Previous Sell-Outs Set the Stage for New Release: 17,500 set to miss out
This release follows the overwhelming success of the 2019 Gruffalo 50p coins. The first Gruffalo coin, released in February 2019, sparked massive excitement across the UK, selling out quickly.
Over 239,000 Brilliant Uncirculated coins were snapped up, and all 25,500 Silver Proof coins sold out in record time. In fact, we saw a sell-out within just 12 hours of release. Remarkably, that’s one every two seconds. Similarly, the second coin, featuring the Gruffalo and the Mouse, released in October 2019, was equally popular and sold out rapidly.
Given the rapid sell-out of the previous Gruffalo coins, collectors expect the Gruffalo’s Child 50p—especially the Silver Proof edition—to be just as sought-after.
That’s because this latest release has a tiny edition limit. Just 7,500 will be issued. Which means that 17,500 collectors who bought the first release will miss out on completing their collection.
Therefore, as CPM customers, you have the exclusive opportunity to secure this exquisite coin before it’s gone.
Introducing the New Gruffalo’s Child 50p Coin: A Collector’s Dream
The Gruffalo’s Child, written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler, has been enchanting readers for two decades. Now, this timeless tale has been immortalised on a UK coin for the first time. The reverse of the coin features authentic artwork from the book, faithfully remastered by The Royal Mint’s Emma Noble, capturing the essence of the beloved story.
The Silver Proof edition, which we are excited to offer, is a particularly stunning piece, showcasing vibrant colour printing that brings the charming illustrations to life. The quality and craftsmanship of the Silver Proof make it a standout in any collection, and its limited availability ensures that it will be a treasured item for years to come.
