Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique "Happy Birthday" design on the reverse side, which is not commonly seen on coins. This design was specifically created to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II's 95th birthday, which fell on April 21, 2021. The coin's obverse side still features the standard portrait of the Queen, but the reverse side showcases a colorful and festive design with balloons, streamers, and a birthday cake, along with the words "Happy Birthday" written in bold, playful letters. This coin is a special collector's item for anyone interested in numismatics or royal memorabilia.
