The honouring of Beatrix Potter with a new series of 50p coins and this
Peter Rabbit 50p is the first release of 2017. 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit’
was the first of Beatrix Potter’s tales and the mischievous character has
been captured in the centre. Designed by Emma Noble, the coin features
Peter Rabbit in his iconic blue jacket that became the emblem of Beatrix
Potter’s work.
The Tale of Peter Rabbit was first published by Frederick Warne in 1902
and endures as Beatrix Potter’s most popular and well-loved tale. It tells
the story of a very mischievous rabbit and the trouble he encounters in Mr
McGregor’s vegetable garden.
