One interesting fact about the 1 Sovereign - Elizabeth II (Queen Victoria - Four Heads) 2019 coin from Alderney (Guernsey) is that it features a unique four-headed design, with each head representing a different aspect of Queen Victoria's reign: Young Head, Jubilee Head, Veiled Head, and Old Head. This design was created by sculptor and engraver, Jody Clark, and was used to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Queen Victoria's birth.
