The Wind in the Willows Fifty Pence Coin Collection

The Wind In The Willows is one best-loved children’s books of all time. The lovable characters and their comic escapades have been a constant companion for many of us from our own childhood to reading them to our grandchildren. It was 90 years ago that Kenneth Grahame invited E.H. Shepard to bring his characters to life, ‘I love these little people, be kind to them.’ He asked of the artist.

Now you can celebrate 90 years of E.H. Shepard’s original artwork and join Ratty & Mole on an adventure through the Wild Wood. Beautifully crafted using state-of-the-art minting techniques and artwork from E.H. Shepard’s original drawings, the coin perfectly portrays the magic of Ratty & Mole’s first meeting. Bringing the classic characters artfully and vividly to life, it is sure to be cherished and passed down through the generations, just like The Wind in the Willows story itself.
