Mrs Tiggy-Winkle is one of Beatrix Potter's warmest and most endearing characters — a kindly hedgehog washerwoman who lives in a tiny cottage tucked into the hillside above Little Town. Published in 1905, her tale is a gentle, domestic idyll inspired by the real laundress Kitty MacDonald, and Potter's illustrations of the prickly but immaculately aproned Mrs Tiggy-Winkle ironing and folding have become icons of cosy English charm.
This gold-plated commemorative honours Mrs Tiggy-Winkle in beautiful relief. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard with a proof-like finish, this 32mm piece is plated in 24 carat gold and weighs 10.5 grams — a warm golden tribute to Potter's most lovable hedgehog.
