Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an error in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of Queen Elizabeth II, but her crown is depicted as being slightly tilted, which was not intentional. This error was caused by a misalignment during the minting process and has become a unique characteristic of this particular coin.
