The Atlantic salmon 50p coin is one of eight new coin designs to be released into circulation in 2023.

The designs, unveiled by the Royal Mint, feature flora and fauna and are intended to mark the final chapter of the King’s transition onto coinage.

The coins feature different designs on coins ranging from the 1p to the £2.

The 50p coin features the Atlantic salmon and is part of a collection that celebrates creatures such as the red squirrel, the hazel dormouse and the bee.

The description of the coin issued by the Royal Mint says: “Wild populations are low due to factors such as river pollution, habitat loss, river heating and overfishing.

“They can be found in clean rivers in Scotland and Wales along with those in North and South West England.”

At the time the designs were unveiled, the Royal Mint said the designs, officially known as definitives, mark the final chapter of the King’s transition onto coinage.
