The 50 Pence coin featuring a Loggerhead turtle is a striking representation of wildlife conservation, issued by the British Indian Ocean Territory in 2019. The obverse showcases the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed with intricate details that highlight her regal bearing. The reverse features a Loggerhead turtle, symbolizing the region's rich marine biodiversity and the importance of preserving such species. Made of copper-nickel with a diamond finish, this coin not only serves as legal tender but also appeals to collectors due to its unique design and limited mintage. Its composition, while not precious, adds to its aesthetic appeal, making it a desirable piece for numismatists and wildlife enthusiasts alike.
