Commemorative versions of the copper-nickel (CN) 50 pence coin, a standard British circulating coin, featuring King Charles III on the obverse and (so far) seven commemorative images on the reverse side:
2023 = 2
2024 = 3
2025 = 2
Minted at the Royal Mint, Llantrisant.

The design was also struck in silver proof and gold proof.
