Comment
The equivalence 1 Laurel = 1 Pound is theoretical and refers to the value of a Laurel four hundred years earlierInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Laurel issue, which was a historic coin minted in 1619 during the reign of King James I of England. The Laurel issue was significant because it was the first coin to feature a laurel wreath on the reverse side, which became a common design element on British coins for centuries to come. The 2019 Non-circulating coin ¼ Laurel - Elizabeth II coin is a nod to this historic issue and features a similar design, with the addition of a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse side.
