Experience the majesty of the Ice Age Giants with the 50p Woolly Mammoth Coin.

One of the largest beasts to roam the Earth during the Ice Age, the woolly rhinoceros was similar in appearance to its modern-day counterpart. Weighing around 2 tonnes, it was about the same size as a living African white rhinoceros but had a thick double-layered wool coat and a sabre-like front horn, which is thought to have been used to clear snow when searching for food.

This Woolly Rhinoceros UK 50p coin features a reverse design created by palaeo-artist Robert Nicholls in collaboration with the expert guidance of palaeobiologist Professor Adrian Lister from the Natural History Museum
