Archery

Description

The 2011 Archery 50 pence coin from the United Kingdom is part of the popular Olympic series issued by the Royal Mint, celebrating the London 2012 Olympic Games. With a mintage of 334,550, it features a design by artist Simon Tarrant that captures the essence of archery, depicting a stylized archer in action, which reflects both the dynamic nature of the sport and its historical significance as one of the oldest Olympic disciplines. Although it has a rarity score of 4 out of 10, indicating a moderate availability, its connection to the highly anticipated London Olympics and the cultural relevance of archery lends it appeal among collectors and numismatists alike. The coin's circulation condition allows it to be accessible to a broader audience, while its market value remains modest at £1, making it an attractive addition for those interested in Olympic memorabilia and modern British coinage.
