Interesting fact
The coin features an image of Catherine the Great, the Empress of Russia from 1762 to 1796, on the reverse side, while the obverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This is a unique feature of the coin, as it is not common to see a foreign leader featured on a coin issued by a different country's government.
