Wallace & Gromit commemorated in new 50 years of Aardman Royal Mint coin collection – Here’s how to buy it

To mark Aardman’s 50th birthday, the Royal Mint has created a special collection of coins featuring beloved characters like Wallace & Gromit, Shaun the Sheep, and Morph.

Starting as a small studio in Bristol, the British animator has become world-renowned, creating beloved stories such as Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers and A Close Shave.

Fans can now celebrate their favorite team members with a new collection of coins and keepsakes. It features both colorful and classic coin designs, plus limited-edition prints and other merchandise.

As a huge fan, I’m so excited about these new coins! Each one has the same design – it’s got Wallace, Gromit, Shaun the Sheep, Morph, and even Feathers McGraw all on it! It’s a fantastic tribute to all those characters.

This new coin is one of several special editions released this year, joining commemorations for both Winnie the Pooh’s 100th anniversary and the 25th anniversary of The Lord of the Rings. Here’s where you can purchase it now.
