Collectibility
The Peter Rabbit series has been particularly popular among collectors, especially those interested in British coinage or literary-themed collectibles. The coins are sought after for their artistic value and connection to British cultural heritage.
Mintage Numbers
The rarity and value of the coin can depend on the mintage numbers, with lower mintages typically driving higher collector interest and value.

Who is Peter Rabbit?
Inspired by the British countryside, Beatrix Potter wrote 23 little tales of adventure. Each of these tales featured different characters who were based upon animals
of the countryside, with one of these animals a particular favourite of the tales – Peter Rabbit.
Adored by generations of readers, Peter Rabbit has led us on escapades from when we were young readers to reading to our children. An instantly recognisable character of fiction, he is undoubtedly the most famous and well-known of Potter’s characters.
We first started celebrating the life and work of Beatrix Potter in 2016, in commemoration of the 150th anniversary of her birth, and it is no surprise that Peter Rabbit is one of the most popular characters in the collection.
Since then The Royal Mint has released a new Peter Rabbit coin every year and 2019 is no exception. Royal Mint coin designer Emma Noble has carefully engraved each detail and the 2019 design depicts Peter Rabbit in his trademark jacket.
