Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a colored portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, which is not common in coins. Most coins feature a monotone or silver-colored portrait of the queen. The colored portrait adds an extra layer of uniqueness and collectibility to this coin.
