Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting her as a young princess, specifically Princess Charlotte of Cambridge. This is a departure from the traditional depiction of the Queen as a mature monarch, and adds a touch of nostalgia and historical significance to the coin.
