Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique bimetallic design, with a gold center surrounded by an electrum ring. Electrum is a naturally occurring alloy of gold and silver, and in this case, the ring is composed of 37.5% gold and 62.5% silver. This distinctive design element adds to the coin's numismatic appeal and sets it apart from other coins.
