2013 Benjamin Bitten 50 pence
December 07, 2013, 09:25:30 PM
A friend up north in Yorkshire send me a 2013 Benjamin Britten 50 pence.

According to Wikipedia - Edward Benjamin Britten was an English composer, conductor and pianist. He was a central figure of 20th-century British classical music, with a range of works including opera, other vocal music, orchestral and chamber pieces. His best-known works include the opera Peter Grimes - 1945, the War Requiem - 1962 and the orchestral showpiece The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra - 1945.

Can't say that I have ever heard of him.
Interesting design though.  :)

Will it be a circulation coin?
