The 2011 Olympic Goalball 50p Coin is part of the 29-coin commemorative series issued by The Royal Mint to celebrate the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Each coin in the series represents a different sport, and Goalball stands out as one of the few that highlight the Paralympic disciplines.
Designed by Jonathan Wren, the reverse shows a goalball player in motion, reaching out to stop the ball. The design powerfully represents the energy and skill involved in this fast-paced sport played by visually impaired athletes. The London 2012 Olympic logo appears above the scene, with the denomination “50 PENCE” below.
