| Obverse description | The coat of arms of the Pitcairn Islands is rendered in high relief at the centre of the field, depicting a quartered shield supported by two dolphins, surmounted by a Bounty Bible crest. The arms incorporate an anchor and a burning torch, symbolic of the island's heritage. A circular legend reads 'PITCAIRN ISLANDS' to the upper left and 'FIFTY PENCE' to the upper right, separated by raised dot stops. The date '2022' appears in the lower exergue, flanked by two raised dots. |

| Additional information |
The Pitcairn Islands, with a permanent population that has hovered around 50 people for decades, issues coins primarily as collector revenue rather than circulating currency. This piece is part of a Harry Potter licensing arrangement that has seen numerous Pacific and Caribbean territories mint themed issues — a cottage industry in modern numismatics that has little to do with the issuing territory and everything to do with retail margins.
