Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (George III) 2015 from Gibraltar (British Overseas Territories) made of Gold plated copper-nickel weighing 28.28 g is that it features a unique double portrait of Queen Elizabeth II and King George III. This is because the coin was issued to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo, which took place in 1815, during the reign of King George III. The double portrait design is a nod to the historical event and adds an interesting element to the coin's design.
