Description

The 2011 Boccia 50p coin, minted by the Royal Mint in the United Kingdom, holds a unique place in modern British numismatics as part of the series celebrating various sports, with Boccia being a sport that gained prominence in the Paralympics. With a mintage of 2,166,000, it is relatively common among collectors, reflected in its rarity score of 4 out of 10, which indicates moderate availability in circulation. The coin features a distinctive design that encapsulates the spirit of inclusivity and competition, resonating with the themes of the Paralympic Games.
