On 21 June 1948, a ship called HMT Empire Windrush docked in Essex. Hoping to start a new life, many of the ship’s British Caribbean-born passengers sought work in the ‘mother country’ during a pot-war era where the United Kingdom experienced severe labour shortages. The Windrush moniker became symbolic of those original passengers and subsequent generations that helped shape the country as it is today.

Celebrating 75 years since that ship's arrival, each official UK 50p is housed in a typically high quality Royal Mint pack.
