Description
Since 1871, The FA Cup has provided football fans around the world with unforgettable moments and exhilarating sporting drama. The unique structure of the knockout competition allows clubs from the lower tiers of English football a legitimate chance of coming up against a Premier League giant, which engenders a feeling of excitement and anticipation like no other. In a year where the famous competition marks its 150th anniversary, we celebrate The FA Cup on a UK coin for the very first time.
Kicking off towards the end of the nineteenth century, the number of teams that now vie for the prestigious trophy has grown to more than 700. From the early grassroot stages through to the famous third round, which is when the more established teams of the English Football League join the competition, the magic of the Cup continues to thrive and captivate the fans.
