Britain 50 pence Victoria Medal Cross Royal Symbols PR69 PCGS silver coin 2009

The 2009 Great Britain 50 Pence silver coin “Victoria Cross – Medal” honors the 150th anniversary of the Victoria Cross, the United Kingdom’s highest military decoration for valor. The reverse, designed by Claire Aldridge, presents two detailed depictions of the Victoria Cross medal — one showing the front with the crowned lion and royal inscription “FOR VALOUR”, and the other the reverse with the date “29 JAN 1856”, the year Queen Victoria instituted the award. The two crosses are framed by a decorative laurel branch and the inscriptions “VC” and “FIFTY PENCE”. The obverse features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, surrounded by the legend “ELIZABETH·II·D·G·REG·F·D·2009”. Struck in proof silver and graded PCGS PR69DCAM, this coin stands as a symbol of courage, sacrifice, and honor — a gleaming tribute to those whose heroism has shaped British history.
