2022 Guernsey – Around the World in 80 Days 50p Coloured Set

Description

2022 marks the 150th Anniversary of Jules Verne’s epic adventure story, Around the World in 80 Days. A global hit when released, the book has since been translated into hundreds of languages, adapted into numerous films and TV shows and even inspired real-life imitations.

Well today, you can celebrate this milestone anniversary with five stunning coloured brilliant uncirculated coins.

Each set features five coins, struck from copper nickle to a high-quality brilliant uncirculated finish. Released by Guernsey Treasury and fully approved by her Majesty the Queen, each coin adorns an intricate design by artist Stephen Lee, which has been carefully coloured to bring the travels of Phileas Fogg to life – from London to San Francisco.

Only 995 Sets Worldwide

Given the popularity of Phileas Fogg’s journey Around the World, the small edition limit of 995 is unlikely to satisfy demand. Especially as each set will arrive in a stylish Presentation Case alongside Certificate of Authenticity, confirming each sets place within the strict edition limit.
