| Reverse description | Full-colour rendition of Peter Rabbit, depicted bounding to the right in his characteristic blue jacket, set amid a lush garden scene populated with colourful wildflowers, foxgloves, butterflies, a robin, and bees — all faithfully rendered in the style of Beatrix Potter's original illustrations. The numeral '120' surmounts the word 'YEARS' to the left of the central figure, commemorating the anniversary of the tale's publication. The curved legend 'THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT' arcs along the lower periphery, with the trademark symbol appearing in the lower field. The design was engraved by Ffion Gwillim. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Royal Mint's long-running Beatrix Potter licensing program, which began in 2016 and has generated more secondary-market speculation than almost any comparable modern British commemorative series. The Peter Rabbit character first appeared in Potter's privately printed 1901 booklet before Frederick Warne & Co. published the commercial edition the following year — making the IP now well over a century old and firmly in the hands of Penguin Random House.
The Sp# NB10 reference places this within Spink's numbering for non-circulating legal tender issues, which tells you everything about its intended audience.
