🔍 About the coin: The 2019 Sherlock Holmes 50p was designed by textual artist Stephen Raw and released by the Royal Mint on 13 May 2019 to mark the 160th anniversary of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's birth. The reverse features a silhouette of Holmes in his iconic deerstalker hat, smoking his pipe — surrounded by the titles of his most celebrated cases engraved into the coin itself, including The Hound of the Baskervilles, A Study in Scarlet, The Final Problem, The Blue Carbuncle, The Musgrave Ritual, A Scandal in Bohemia, Silver Blaze, The Sign of the Four, The Valley of Fear and more. The colour decal by FinderKeeperStore adds skin tone and full colour detail to Holmes's face and hat — bringing the silhouette to vivid life in a way the original coin never could.

📖 About Sherlock Holmes: Created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1886, Sherlock Holmes is the most famous detective in literary history — a consulting detective of extraordinary intelligence living at 221B Baker Street, London, alongside his trusted companion Dr Watson. Doyle wrote 60 Holmes stories across four decades, including four full novels. Despite his famously ambivalent relationship with his own creation — he attempted to kill Holmes off at the Reichenbach Falls in 1893, only to be forced to bring him back by public demand — Holmes has never left the public imagination. From Basil Rathbone to Benedict Cumberbatch, every generation reinvents him. He remains the most portrayed fictional human character in film and television history.
