Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a colorized image of Lord Kitchener, a famous British military leader, on its reverse side. This is a unique feature as most coins have a plain or frosted finish. The colorization adds an extra layer of detail and visual appeal to the coin, making it stand out from other coins in the series.
