Comment
Mintage unknown, amount of 20.000 pieces refers to KM122 Elizabeth I (not QEII).Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II's 80th birthday, which is a significant milestone for any monarch. The coin's design features a portrait of the Queen, and its gold composition and limited mintage make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists.
