Additional information

The Wombles, created by Elisabeth Beresford in 1968 after she misheard her daughter mispronounce "Wimbledon Common," became a genuine cultural phenomenon through the BBC stop-motion series of the early 1970s. Wellington — the bookish, inventive character named after the Duke — was among the original cast of Great Uncle Bulgaria's litter-collecting household. Guernsey has issued this series under a licensing arrangement, a common route for the island's prolific commemorative program, which operates independently of the Royal Mint.
