Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that highlights Bermuda's rich aviation history. The coin's reverse side depicts a representation of a vintage aircraft, the Spirit of St. Louis, which was flown by Charles Lindbergh on his historic solo flight across the Atlantic in 1927. The design also includes a map of Bermuda and a compass, symbolizing the island's strategic location in the North Atlantic and its importance as a hub for transatlantic flights. This design was created by the Bermudian artist and stamp designer, Dr. Robert A. Fraser, and it adds a touch of local flavor to the coin.
