This new coin celebrates 100 years of the Grand Prix taking place in Britain. The Grand Prix first landed on British shores in 1926, with the first UK purpose-built motor racing venue opening in Brooklands in Surrey.

The Grand Prix 50p will join coins commemorating Queen Elizabeth II, HMS Beagle, ZSL, the Grand Prix in Britain and The King’s Trust in the 2026 annual set.
Here's how you can buy the coin today.
