	British Royal Mint - 50p Coin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		In October 1969 the 50p joined the 5p (shilling) and 10p (florin) coins in circulation, leaving only the three copper coins to be introduced on 15 February 1971 to complete the new series of decimal coins.
		This made it easily distinguishable from round coins both by feel and by sight, while its constant breadth allowed it to roll in vending machines.
		With the introduction of smaller 5p and 10p coins in 1990 and 1992 respectively, the 50p became the largest coin in circulation.
