Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the sport of beach volleyball, which is not commonly seen on coins. The design depicts two athletes playing beach volleyball on a beach court, with the ocean and palm trees in the background. This design is not only visually appealing but also represents the British Virgin Islands' connection to the Olympic Games, as the country has participated in beach volleyball at the Olympics. This coin is a great collector's item for anyone interested in Olympic sports, beach volleyball, or unique coin designs.
