Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique swimming-themed design on the reverse side, which was created to commemorate the 2012 Summer Olympics held in London.

This coin is a rare and collectible item, with only a limited number of coins minted, making it a valuable addition to any coin collection.
