History and design
This is a collector version of the 50 Pence - Charles III Millennium Falcon. The history below is that coin's; the mintage, varieties and collecting notes on its page do not apply to this strike.
The Millennium Falcon 50p opened the Royal Mint's second Star Wars set, which turned from the character pairings of 2023 to the vehicles of the films. The Mint launched it on Monday 18 March 2024 and said the TIE Fighter, X-Wing and Death Star II would follow during the year. It was the first time a design based on the ship had appeared on a UK coin.
The four vehicle designs were authorised by a royal proclamation that came into force on 22 February 2024. Buyers could order all four on the launch day.
The coin was made for collectors. It is not in the Royal Mint's circulating mintage figures, and the Mint has not published sales figures for its 2024 coins.
The reverse shows the Falcon in flight, with the inscription STAR WARS. The Royal Mint says the imagery came directly from Lucasfilm's official image library and that the coin was produced with Disney and Lucasfilm. Its specification credits the reverse to Lucasfilm Ltd., while its launch press release names its own designer, Ffion Gwillim.
A lenticular feature, which the Mint describes as tilting in the light to reveal symbols, switches between a silhouette of the Falcon and the Starbird of the Rebel Alliance. The Mint said an advanced picosecond laser was used to put the designs onto the coin-making tools. Every edition has the feature except the quarter-ounce gold proof.
The obverse carries the portrait of King Charles III by Martin Jennings with his titles, 50 PENCE and the date 2024. The edge is plain.
