Silver penny for babies sharing royal birth date!

It was announced today that Royal Mint will be GIVING out Silver 1p coins that are actually worth £28 to any baby that is born on the same day that Kate Middleton and Prince William’s child is born, due middle of July.

Shane Bissett, director of commemorative coins at the Royal Mint, said: “The birth of the royal baby will be a joyous occasion not just for Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge but also for the whole nation, as we prepare to celebrate another remarkable milestone in their life journey together.

“However, it will also be a special day for many mothers and fathers across the country as they too welcome the arrival of their new baby, hence why we wanted to extend this historical moment to them with a lucky silver penny”.
