Comment

Coin is in honor of the soldiers that gave their lives for the Sovereignty of their country. Reverse legend removed by Pobjoy mint for unknowingly using the trademarked name "Britannia" which is owned by the Royal Mint. Resulting with a relatively low mintage version.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design of Britannia, the mythical figure representing Britain, on the reverse side. The design depicts Britannia standing on the shore, looking out towards the sea, with a trident in her right hand and a shield bearing the Union Jack in her left. This design is different from the traditional depiction of Britannia on British coins, where she is often shown seated or standing on a rock, and adds a distinct touch to the coin's design.
