Interesting fact
The H.M.A.V. Bounty coin from Pitcairn Islands features a unique design, depicting Queen Elizabeth II on one side and the HMS Bounty on the other. The HMS Bounty was a British Royal Navy ship that was built in 1784 and became famous for its involvement in the mutiny that took place on board in 1789, which was led by Fletcher Christian against Captain William Bligh. The mutineers eventually settled on Pitcairn Island, which is how the ship and its history became connected to the island. The coin's design serves as a reminder of the island's history and its connection to the British Navy.
