Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1996 Isle of Man 1 Crown coin featuring Elizabeth II (Camelot Castle) is that it has a unique design that sets it apart from other coins in the series. The coin's reverse features a depiction of Camelot Castle, which is a fictional location from the legend of King Arthur, rather than a real-world landmark or landmark building. This design choice adds a touch of whimsy and fantasy to the coin, making it stand out from other coins in the series that feature more traditional designs.
