It says the coin will be cicular. Does it say that for all 50p's or is this a new "round" 50p 🤨

🤔 no idea mate. I’m sure they could have expressed it in it’s true shape hexagon, pentagon or whatever it is (I skipped that class).

Maybe it’s just the denomination in pence and it is a round coin, I mean there are no real £5 coins, only notes. I’m guessing it’s another Britannia type coin to cash in further on Brexit for those who missed out on the others?? Strange I agree! 
 

EDIT

ok, apparently it’s a Heptagon!!

The fact that my original mentions it being Circular (good spot by the way) must mean it’s some kind of second Britannia (or does it)?

Sounds like its going to be a 1/4oz  Silver Brit which has a face value of 50p 😐

The dimensions and weight match that of a similar 1/4 Brit.

If it is I dont see the point?

Me neither.
