Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique gold clad silver proof finish, which gives it a distinctive look and makes it stand out from other coins. The gold cladding is applied to a silver proof coin, creating a striking contrast between the two metals and adding an extra layer of visual interest to the design. This finish is particularly rare and sought after by collectors, making the coin a valuable addition to any collection.
