Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it commemorates the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, which took place on October 21, 1805, during the Napoleonic Wars. The coin's design features an image of HMS Agamemnon, a British ship that played a significant role in the battle, and the background depicts the Rock of Gibraltar, where the ship took refuge after the battle.
