How to buy the new Royal Mint 100 Years of Winnie the Pooh coin in the UK today
Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin, Tigger and Eeyore are all being celebrated.
A hundred years of the Hundred Acre Wood is being celebrated today with the release of a new Winnie the Pooh Royal Mint coin collection.
AA Milne's iconic book Winnie-the-Pooh is now a century old, meaning the time is ripe for it, and sequel The House at Pooh Corner, to be transformed into a member of the Mint's Limited Editions collection.
Three coins have been made to honour the anniversary, one of Pooh Bear holding a bunch of flowers close, one of him and Christopher Robin, and one with Pooh Bear and friends Tigger and Eeyore.
The first coin – which they're calling the Kindness Coin of Pooh Bear holding flowers – is available to buy from today (Tuesday 17 February), the second two coins will be available to buy in April and June 2026 respectively. So, if you buy the three-coin set today, you'll only be paying for the first coin now and two subsequent payments will be taken for the second and third.
This series joins other literary figures in their collection like Harry Potter and Mary Poppins. Here's what you need to know.
