Interesting fact

The 1996 Gibraltar 1 Crown coin featuring Grace Kelly is a unique and interesting collector's item. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Grace Kelly's birth, who was an American actress and a Princess of Monaco. The coin's design features a portrait of Grace Kelly on the obverse side, while the reverse side features the standard design of the Gibraltar coat of arms. This coin is a great example of how numismatics can be used to celebrate important historical figures and events.
