A pretty standard hunt with no exceptional commemorative 50p coins with the 2020 Brexit 50p coming out on top for the most finds!
The Star Find in this hunt was the 1998 European Union 50p Coin as we do not find very many of them – the coin is 22 years old! With a mintage of 5,043,000 is is worth around £2.00.
