Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Platinum Wedding Anniversary 1 Crown coin from the Isle of Man is that it features a unique double effigy design, with both a traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a special commemorative design on the other, showcasing the Queen and Prince Philip together, surrounded by a platinum border. This special design was created to celebrate the Queen's 70th wedding anniversary and is not found on any other coin.
