Petition to get Colonel Tom Moore featured on a UK 50p coin
The Issue
Colonel Tom Moore, a WWII veteran, turned 100 on 30th April this year. His birthday tributes included an RAF flypast, a train named in his honour and an honorary promotion by the Queen from Captain to Colonel - but what about a coin? After raising over £30 million for the NHS, we can't think of anyone more deserving of such a lasting accolade!
We have sent some mock designs to The Royal Mint but the entire process can take up to 2 years from design to completion.
By signing this petition you can help convince the mint to make this fitting tribute to a modern-day British hero!
