The Royal Mint Museum creates educational resources for all ages. Our website offers activities, lesson plans, downloadables, and information about numismatics, history, STEM topics, and more. Our educational video series, created last year, is one of our favourite things to share. This is the first video to illustrate the process of striking. Drop us a line to enquire about how we can support your school or project! #Education #Numismatics #PrimaryEducation #SecondaryEducation #STEM https://lnkd.in/ePfaidZj

Last week, we were very pleased to attend the RSPB Scotland's annual conference on His Majesty The King's first definitive coins.
In the development of His Majesty The King's first definitive coins, we worked closely with the RSPB to create eight new designs depicting iconic UK species of flora and fauna. Earlier this week, The Royal Mint Museum's Chris Barker was delighted to attend RSPB Scotland's annual conference to speak about the coins and how they have been designed to raise awareness of the importance of conservation and reflect His Majesty's passion for nature and wildlife. Here is a link to the charity's Crowdfunding page which has been set up to help fund an extensive conservation programme: https://hubs.li/Q02v99ph0
