This 2022 Alexander Graham Bell £2 celebrates the incredible legacy of one of the United Kingdom’s greatest inventors.
lexander Graham Bell completely revolutionised the world of communication when he achieved the world’s first successful telephone transmission on 10 March 1876. Changing the way in which we communicate forever, his innovation of the telephone is arguably one of the most important breakthroughs in modern history.
