Logie Baird, an 20th century engineer, invented the first working televisions in the early 1920s and demonstrated his prototype for the first time in January 1926.
The Royal Mint have designed the piece aged of the 75th anniversary of the death of the “Father of Television”.
The coin depicts a graphic image of a broadcast transmission, featuring concentric circles pulsing outward from a silhouette of the Crystal Palace mast in London, the site of Mr Logie Baird’s television station and transmitter.
Clare Maclennan, a director of commemorative coins at The Royal Mint, said: “The design represents Baird’s accomplishments and the invention of broadcast transmission, which has shaped culture and entertainment as we know it today.
