The medal features David Tennant as the 10th Doctor

The Royal Mint has unveiled a new series of medals inspired by Doctor Who and featuring David Tennant’s likeness.

The limited edition medals, which have just gone on sale, also feature the Doctor’s robot dog K-9, the Tardis and his infamous enemies – the Daleks.

They mark the first time that television characters have featured on a Royal Mint medal.

Dave Knight, Director of Commemorative Coin, praised the show’s "enduring appeal", calling the Doctor "timeless".

Head of UK Licensing at BBC Worldwide Richard Hollis said: "David Tennant’s performance as the Doctor has been applauded and celebrated across the country and these medals are a fantastic way for fans to collect a lasting memento."
