Britain 50 pence 250 Years of Kew Gardens PR68 PCGS piedfort silver coin 2009

The 2009 Great Britain 50 pence silver piedfort coin was minted to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of Kew Gardens — one of the most iconic botanical gardens in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The obverse presents the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, surrounded by the legend ELIZABETH II • D • G • REG • F • D • FIFTY PENCE. The reverse showcases the beautifully detailed image of the Great Pagoda, designed by Sir William Chambers in 1762, encircled by delicate intertwining branches and leaves that represent the flourishing plant life of the gardens. The dates 1759 and 2009 mark the foundation and anniversary of this historic institution. Struck in silver with Proof Deep Cameo quality, this piedfort coin — twice the thickness of the regular issue — is graded PR68DCAM by PCGS, confirming its exceptional contrast and mirror finish. A remarkable collectible combining British heritage, architectural beauty, and numismatic artistry.
