Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design that depicts the Titanic shipwreck with an iceberg in the background, surrounded by a frosty border, giving the impression of the cold and icy waters of the North Atlantic where the ship sank. The design is meant to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's sinking, which occurred on April 15, 1912.
