Comment
One of a six coin series of Great British Heroes in colourInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique colorized design, depicting a lone soldier standing guard at the summit of a mountain, with the Union Jack flag flying in the background. The colorization adds an extra layer of depth and detail to the design, making it stand out from other coins in the series.
