Interesting fact

The 1993 Gibraltar 1 Crown coin featuring Mr. Jeremy Fisher, a character from a children's book series, is a unique and collectible coin. It's interesting to note that the coin's design, which features Mr. Fisher sitting on a lily pad and playing a fiddle, was created by the renowned British artist and designer, Mary Rose Webb. Her design was chosen as the winner of a competition held by the Gibraltar National Art Gallery and the Gibraltar Coinage Committee. This coin is a great example of how art and literature can come together to create a special and meaningful collectible item.
