Obverse: Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Reverse: Doolittle Raid.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 75th anniversary of the Doolittle Raid, a daring World War II operation in which a squadron of US Army Air Forces B-25 Mitchell bombers, led by Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle, took off from the USS Hornet aircraft carrier and launched a surprise attack on Tokyo and other Japanese cities, causing significant damage and embarrassing the Japanese military. The coin's design features an image of a B-25 bomber and the words "Doolittle Raid 75th Anniversary" inscribed above it.
