Interesting fact

The 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (Pluto) 2001 coin from Gibraltar (British Overseas Territories) features an image of Pluto, the dwarf planet, on its reverse side. This is unique because Pluto is not typically featured on coins, and it's a nod to Gibraltar's interest in space exploration and the scientific community.
