Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design, with the leek and daffodil, which are both symbols of Wales, where the coin was minted. The leek is a traditional Welsh symbol, while the daffodil is a popular flower in Wales and is often associated with the country's patron saint, St. David. The combination of these two symbols on the coin makes it a distinctive and meaningful representation of Welsh culture and heritage.
