Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 2008 Diamond Wedding Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. The coin's design features a portrait of the Queen and Prince Philip, with the inscription "DIAMOND WEDDING ANNIVERSARY 1947-2007" around the edge. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists and royal family enthusiasts.
