2020 Rosalind Franklin DNA

New In cellophane packaging

Rosalind Franklin is one of Britain’s best scientific minds. Without her ground-breaking research we would not understand the complexities of DNA as we do today.
Now to mark the 100th anniversary of her birth, and to celebrate her legacy, The Royal Mint has authorised for a brand new UK 50p to be issued 
It features a striking design by David Knapton, that puts Rosalind Franklin at the heart of the DNA story. It depicts the infamous Photograph 51 that led Franklin to her discovery that DNA has a double helix structure – the same picture that was used by Watson and Crick, robbing Franklin of the accolades that were rightly hers.
