The ten pence coin is a small circulating denomination of the British (decimal) Pound Sterling. 10 pence equal one tenth of a pound. This 10p coin design replaced the earlier 10p design by Matthew Dent, which had been in circulation since 2008. The reverse depicts a capercaillie (the world’s largest grouse) and is part of the nature-inspired recoinage introduced to mark the reign of King Charles III, reflecting his interest in conservation and nature. Five pence and ten pence coins are legal tender only up to the sum of £5; this means it is permissible to refuse payment of sums greater than this amount in 5p and 10p coins to settle a debt. Coins issued in 2024 have now been circulating for less than one year. | ||||||||||||
