DIVERSITY BUILT BRITAIN 2020 QUEEN ELIZABETH II 'CELEBRATING BRITISH DIVERSITY' GOLD PROOF 50P Denomination - 50P Issuing Authority - United Kingdon Weight - 31 g Diameter - 27.30mm Obverse design - Jody Clark Reverse design - Dominique Evans Quality - Proof List Code - No. 26843/241 Britain’s history is rich and diverse. For more than 1,100 years, the nation’s story has been told through coins struck by The Royal Mint, a narrative carried in the pockets and purses of all its people. The contribution of ethnic minority communities has been such an important part of that story but has often gone unrecognised. This coin has been created to celebrate all the people who have made Britain what it is today. The coin design by Dominique Evans features the words ‘DIVERSITY BUILT BRITAIN’ on a structure composed of interconnected triangles. The lines are linked to form a network, with each part just as important as the next in uniting the whole composition. This design signals a change in UK coinage to ensure it is more inclusive of the individuals, events and communities which built a diverse Britain, with more designs set to follow.
