Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique dual-portrait design, with both a young Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II appearing on the same coin. This was done to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Queen Victoria's birth and the 80th birthday of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin's design was created by sculptor and engraver, Ian Rank-Broadley, and it is considered a rare and collectible item among coin enthusiasts.
