Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a rare portrait of King Edward V, who was the eldest son of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, and was next in line to the British throne after his father's death. However, he died unexpectedly in 1910, before he could ascend to the throne, and his younger brother, King George V, succeeded their father instead. This coin is one of the few instances where King Edward V is depicted on a coin, making it a unique and interesting collector's item for numismatists.
