Interesting fact

The 1995 Gibraltar 1 Crown coin featuring Queen Elizabeth II (also known as the "Long Jumper" design) has a unique feature - it has a silver proof finish, which means that the coin was struck multiple times to create a highly detailed and mirror-like finish. This process gives the coin a distinctive shine and makes it stand out from other coins. Additionally, the coin's silver content of .925 (sterling silver) adds to its value and collectibility.
