Comment

Pobjoy Mint Priority Collectors News, edition 1999:

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an unusual design, with a portrait of King Richard I on one side and Queen Elizabeth II on the other. This is because the coin was issued to commemorate the 800th anniversary of King Richard I's coronation, but it was also minted during Queen Elizabeth II's reign. This makes it a unique piece that combines the history of both monarchs.
