A popular children’s character is to be celebrated with a brand new coin. The Royal Mint will be launching a 50p coin featuring Zog, the beloved dragon from Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s cherished children’s book.
The collectable coin commemorates 15 years since the accident-prone but enthusiastic dragon first soared into the hearts of readers.
