Interesting fact

The 1999 Gibraltar 1 Crown coin featuring King Charles I is interesting because it was issued as a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not meant to be used as regular currency, but rather as a collector's item. Despite this, it still holds a unique place in the history of coinage and is a valuable addition to any collection.
