Interesting fact
The ½ Dollar coin - Charles III (Intolerable Acts) 2023 from Niue made of Copper-nickel is interesting because it features an image of King Charles III, who is not a real historical figure but rather a hypothetical one, as the Intolerable Acts were a series of laws passed by the British Parliament in 1774, before the American Revolution, and Charles III was not born until 1948. This coin is an example of alternative history or "what if" scenario, which can be an intriguing concept for collectors and history enthusiasts.
