This piece belongs to the Royal Mint's long-running Beatrix Potter series, revived in 2016 to mark the 150th anniversary of Potter's birth. The Jemima Puddle-Duck design was among the first four released that year, alongside Peter Rabbit, Squirrel Nutkin, and Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle — a release strategy that immediately triggered collector hoarding, leaving circulation examples genuinely difficult to find in change despite mintage figures in the millions.
Potter herself was a serious scientific illustrator before she became a children's author, and her mycological drawings were rejected by the Linnean Society in 1897 partly on grounds of her gender.
