Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting her in robes of the Order of the Garter, which is a prestigious honorific order of chivalry established in 1348. This design was specifically created for the Falkland Islands, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic Ocean, and sets the coin apart from other coins featuring the Queen's likeness.
