Chewie, we’re home…
A new 50p coin has landed at the Royal Mint today, one made the Kessel Run in less than 14 parsecs, or was it 12?
That’s right, Han Solo’s Millennium Falcon has been immortalised in copper today alongside three other new additions to the Royal Mint’s Star Wars range.
The other coins all feature iconic vehicles from the original Star Wars trilogy: the TIE Fighter, X-Wing and Death Star II.
Star Wars fans may remember that last year the Royal Mint released a series of coins portraying Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and Chewbacca to commemorate 40 years since Return of the Jedi.
Now, they’re expanding that collection even further with ship coins available in a range of shapes, sizes, and colours.
In an interview with the BBC, the Royal Mint’s Rebecca Morgan said: “We are excited to enthuse new and existing coin collectors across the world and capture the imaginations of Star Wars’ thriving fan base.”
We’ve got a good feeling about this; here’s how you can get your hands on these new coins.
