Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (Battle of the Nile) 2005 from Isle of Man (British Crown dependencies) made of Copper-nickel weighing 28.28 g is that it commemorates the 200th anniversary of the Battle of the Nile, a naval battle fought between the British and the French during the Napoleonic Wars. The coin's design features an image of HMS Victory, the British flagship during the battle, and the reverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin was issued as part of a series of commemorative coins by the Isle of Man, a self-governing British Crown dependency in the Irish Sea, to celebrate significant historical events and milestones.
