Interesting fact
The Falkland Islands, where this coin was minted, are a British Overseas Territory located in the South Atlantic Ocean, with a population of less than 3,000 people. Despite their remote location, the Falkland Islands have their own currency, the Falkland Islands pound, which is pegged to the British pound. The coin , featuring Queen Elizabeth II and the Order of the Garter, is a non-circulating coin, meaning it is not intended for everyday use but rather for collectors.
