| Beschrijving keerzijde | An aerial perspective view of a circular conference table surrounded by twelve chairs, representing the Council of Ministers of the European Community during the United Kingdom's presidency. Twelve five-pointed stars are positioned on the table surface at the geographic locations corresponding to the capital cities of the twelve member states, interconnected by a network of lines symbolising the trade and commercial bonds within the Community. The dates 1992 and 1993 flank the design, referencing the period of the UK's EC Council Presidency, with the denomination 50 PENCE and the country designation UK appearing within the legend. The engraver's initials MMD are incorporated into the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece was struck to mark the United Kingdom's presidency of the European Community Council of Ministers and the completion of the single market — both falling in the second half of 1992. Britain's EC presidency ran from July through December of that year, coinciding precisely with the deadline set by the Single European Act for achieving the internal market. The timing gave the Royal Mint a rare occasion to issue commemorative coinage tied to a specific political mandate rather than a dynastic or ceremonial event.
The silver proof version was issued alongside a cupro-nickel circulation strike, the latter actually entering everyday use — unusual for a commemorative of this type.
