Interesting fact

The 1995 Gibraltar 1 Crown coin featuring the Barbary Ape is a unique and interesting piece due to its depiction of a monkey on the reverse side, which is unusual for a coin. The coin's design was created by the wildlife artist, John M. Holmes, and it is one of the few coins in the world to feature a primate. Additionally, the coin's silver content and proof finish add to its collectibility and numismatic value.
