Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, which took place on December 7, 1941. The coin's design features an image of the USS Arizona, which was one of the ships sunk during the attack, along with the words "Remember Pearl Harbor" and the dates "1941-2016." The coin's issuance was a way for Tristan da Cunha to honor the victims of the attack and to acknowledge the significance of this event in world history.
