2019 Stephen Hawking's 50p from the Royal Mint
Stephen Hawking was not only one of the world’s most prodigious physicists but he was also a brilliant ambassador for science. His dry humour, infectious passion and acute mind meant he was able to bring complex ideas into the mainstream. A Brief History of Time, his hugely seminal book, introduced millions of people to the workings of the universe. It became a global bestseller and its influence is still felt today.
