Boxing coin designer Shane Abery

In a Royal Mint video interview with the Boxing coin designer Shane Abery (click image above to view), asked what was the inspiration behind your idea?, Shane said: The idea was quite easy really, to me the sport of boxing is boxing gloves and its symbolic and everyone can see a pair of boxing gloves and quickly link the gloves to the sport so it was just laying them out in the right way so people would notice and immediately say yes that's boxing.

Coin condition and quality

The value of a coin is always related to the condition. A 2011 Olympic Boxing 50p coin in good circulated condition (A few small contact marks on the coin, but retains some original shine and most of the original design detail.) is more desirable to a collector than a worn down battered coin.

Prices shown on this page relate to coins created for circulation (CIRC) and coins available to buy in Uncirculated (UNC) quality.

Some coins made for circulation remain "Uncirculated" as they have been kept in or taken from the original sealed coin bag they were packed in after being sent out from The Royal Mint. These are still circulation quality coins - but may keep more of the orginal shine and have a few less contact marks.

Coins not in sealed bags or held in a collection out of the 2,148,500 coins struck, will now have been in circulation for 15 years.
