History and design
The Game of Thrones Ice 50p was announced by the Royal Mint on 15 July 2026 together with a Fire coin, the pair marking 15 years of the HBO fantasy series. The Mint's release noted that the show first aired in April 2011, ran for eight seasons and was adapted from George R.R. Martin's novels. It was the first time the series had appeared on official UK coins.
It is a collector coin. The Mint took orders from the day of the announcement for delivery in autumn 2026, and has announced no release into circulation. The Royal Mint's circulating mintage figures have no entries for 2026 yet, and no sales figure has been published.
The reverse, credited to Ffion Rees, shows the Night King in close-up along with his personal sigil. The Mint explains the choice by saying that ice is attached to many characters in the series but to none more than him. The royal proclamation words it as "a depiction of the figure of the night king and the inscription GAME OF THRONES".
The denomination is on the other side. The obverse carries the portrait of King Charles III by Martin Jennings with the inscription CHARLES III D G REX F D 50 PENCE and the date 2026. The edge is plain.
Collecting notes
No recognised varieties or mint errors are documented for this coin.
There are two cupro-nickel finishes, a plain Brilliant Uncirculated coin and a colour-printed one in pop-out packaging. The Mint's pages give no maximum mintage for either. Since none were issued for circulation, every example started in Royal Mint packaging, and a loose coin should be checked for handling marks.
The silver proof is colour printed and mounted in an acrylic block, with a stated maximum of 7,511. The gold proof has a maximum of 110 and is made from recycled gold. These are issue limits, not sales figures.
The other half of the pair is the Game of Thrones Fire 50p, which shows a dragon.
