The Royal Mint is encouraging people to rummage through their loose change to discover whether they have a rare 50 pence piece.

Around one in 300 people is estimated by the Mint to have the Kew Gardens coin in their possession after it was released into circulation in 2009 to mark the 250th anniversary of the Royal Botanic Gardens.
