Gibraltar will soon issue a series of 7 commemorative 50p coins to honour British author David Walliams. The coins each commemorate one of the children's books written by Walliams. Coins will be issued for the books: The Boy in the Dress, Mr Stink, Gangsta Granny, Grandpa's Great Escape, Billionaire Boy, Awful Auntie and Ratburger. There will also be a special version of the coins in silver.

The coins will be minted by Pobjoy Mint. The Boy in the Dress is the first coin that will be issued. It can be pre-ordered on this page.

Not for me thanks, there are far too many comic book coins being released.

The third coin in the series was released last Thursday. Due to way too many releases, I can only post it here now. It is available in coloured basemetal diamond finish and coloured silver proof.

The fourth coin in the series is now available for pre-order in copper-nickel diamond finish and sterling silver proof quality.

The 6th coin is also avaliable for pre-sale. It's "Awful Auntie".

Description from Pobjoy:
<<The sixth coin in the series of The World of David Walliams™ features Walliams' novel Awful Auntie,  published by HarperCollins Children's Books – a story about Stella Saxby, the sole heir to Saxby Hall, who is plagued by her awful Aunt Alberta and her giant owl, but Stella has a secret, and slightly spooky, weapon up her sleeve.  The design on the coin shows the image of the front cover from the novel and is available in Cupro Nickel Diamond Finish and Proof Sterling Silver in astonishing colour to match the original illustrations by award-winning Tony Ross.>>

The last one coin in series will be: Grandpa's Great Escape
