2007 Gold Proof 50p - SCOUTING CENTENARY

This GOLD Proof edition 50p celebrates the 100th Anniversary of the Scouting Movement.  The 2007 Scout Movement Gold Proof Fifty Pence features on its reverse a new design by Royal Mint engraver Kerry Jones, who said, 'I was inspired by the creativity, simplicity and the sense of adventure that the Scouts promote'.

Kerry cleverly incorporated three distinct elements for her competition-winning design: the globe, which symbolises the worldwide growth of the Scout Movement; the Scouts' famous fleur-de-lys emblem; and their motto, 'Be prepared'.

Encapsulated and housed in an original Royal Mint box with the Certificate of Authenticity, this is very limited edition coin, with only 1250 issued by the Royal Mint.
