Comment
I believe that this is part of a set issued in this year to commemorate the 80th birthday of Queen Elizabeth IIInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (Christmas broadcast) 2005 coin from Gibraltar is that it features a unique design that depicts Queen Elizabeth II in a festive holiday scene, surrounded by decorations and lights. This design is different from the standard portrait of the Queen that is typically found on coins, making it a distinctive and collectible item for coin enthusiasts.
