Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 2015 State Opening of Parliament, which is a significant event in the British political calendar. The coin's design features an image of Queen Elizabeth II, who has been the monarch of the United Kingdom since 1952, and the coat of arms of Tristan da Cunha, which includes a picture of a ship and a volcano. The coin's gold plating and copper-nickel composition make it a unique and valuable collector's item.
