Royal Mint, Llantrisant, United Kingdom (1968-date)Comments
One of twenty-six 10 pence coins in the Quintessentially British A to Z collection featuring a different letter to represent and celebrate different British landmarks and traditions. Introduced in 1949, by James Callaghan MP, the then parliamentary security to the minister of transport, he came up with the name ‘zebra’ as he believed it would be easily understood and remembered.
Issued individually (issue limit: 15,000) as well as in a case with all 26 letters (issue limit: 200). The design was also struck in nickel plated steel.
