Comment

The House of Windsor came into being in 1917, when King George V, originally of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, but concerned that the German sound of his name might alienate his British subjects during the First World War, changed the name of his dynasty to the more English-sounding Windsor. At a meeting of the Privy Council on July 17, 1917, he declared that "all descendants of Queen Victoria's paternal line shall bear the name of Windsor". The House of Windsor produced four British sovereigns: George V (1910-1936), his son Edward VIII (1936), who abdicated to marry the twice-divorced American Wallis Simpson in favor of his brother George VI (1936-1952), and Queen Elizabeth II.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

La maison de Windsor naît en 1917 lorsque le roi George V, initialement de la maison de Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, mais préoccupé par le fait que la consonance allemande de son nom pourrait lui aliéner ses sujets britanniques durant la Première Guerre mondiale, change le nom de sa dynastie pour Windsor, qui sonne plus anglais. À l’occasion d’une réunion du Conseil privé le 17 juillet 1917, il déclare que « tous les descendants de la lignée paternelle de la reine Victoria porteront le nom de Windsor ». La maison de Windsor produira quatre souverains britanniques : George V (1910-1936), son fils Édouard VIII (1936), qui abdiquera pour épouser l’Américaine Wallis Simpson, deux fois divorcée, au profit de son frère George VI (1936-1952), et la reine Elizabeth II.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the House of Windsor, which is a significant event in British royal history. The House of Windsor was founded in 1917 when King George V changed the name of the royal family from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor, due to the anti-German sentiment during World War I. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, who is the current monarch and a member of the House of Windsor, and the reverse side features the Windsor Castle, which is one of the official residences of the British monarch.
