Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique double portrait of both Queen Elizabeth II and Admiral Horatio Nelson, who was a famous British naval officer and hero of the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The coin was issued to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Nelson's victory and the bicentenary of his death.
