Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the bicentenary of the drafting of the Constitution of Pitcairn Islands, which was created in 1791 by the mutineers of the HMS Bounty, led by Fletcher Christian. The coin's design features an image of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a depiction of the Constitution being signed by the mutineers on the other. This coin is a unique piece of history that highlights the fascinating story of the Pitcairn Islands and its connection to the infamous mutiny.
