Founded in 1826, the Zoological Society of London has spent two centuries at the forefront of global conservation, scientific discovery and the protection of wildlife. From its origins in Regent’s Park to its ongoing work across the world, ZSL has played a vital role in understanding and preserving the natural world.
To mark its 200th anniversary, this official UK £2 coin has been released, celebrating the organisation’s enduring legacy. The reverse design brings together a collection of animals from across the globe, centred around a detailed globe motif that reflects ZSL’s worldwide impact. A lion dominates the design, accompanied by a bird and reptile, representing the diversity of species the society works to protect.
Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard, this collector coin has never entered circulation and retains its original finish. It is presented in official packaging, confirming its status as a genuine UK legal tender coin.
A meaningful addition for collectors and a fitting tribute to one of the world’s leading conservation organisations.
