Interesting fact
The 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (Land Girls) 2010 coin from Gibraltar features a unique design that honors the role of women in the British Armed Forces during World War II. The coin's reverse side depicts a group of women working in a field, symbolizing the contributions of the "Land Girls" who served in the Women's Land Army, a branch of the British military that was established in 1939 to support the war effort. This design was created by artist Stephen Taylor and is a poignant tribute to the brave women who served their country during a time of great need.
