    CuNi (CuproNickel) COIN
    On Christmas Eve 1956, Michael Bond was in a London department store when he spotted a small bear. It was the last one on the shelf and, rather than leave him on his own, he purchased him for his wife.  This bear inspired Bond to write a story and in 10 days he had written the first book 'A Bear Called Paddington' – and the rest, as they say, is history.
    In the first story, Paddington arrives at Paddington Station, London as a stowaway from Darkest Peru. He is found by the Brown family, sitting on his suitcase with a label around his neck that reads ‘Please look after this bear. Thank you’.  The friendly bear, with his famous hat, battered suitcase, duffle coat and love of marmalade, has become a classic character in English children’s literature.
    The Paddington books have been translated into 40 languages, across 70 titles and more than 35 million copies have been sold worldwide.  In 2014 a live action film ‘Paddington’ was released, introducing this lovable character to a whole new generation of fans.
    This beautiful coin carries an image of Paddington himself, carrying his suitcase and waving at his adoring fans.  The obverse of the coin carries an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Lord of Mann, by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS.
