Interesting fact
The 10 Dollar coin featuring Elizabeth II (Goddess Juno) from the British Virgin Islands is a unique and interesting coin due to its depiction of the queen as a goddess. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, but with a twist - she is depicted wearing a crown and carrying a scepter, but her body is that of the Roman goddess Juno, complete with flowing robes and wings. This unusual design choice was likely intended to symbolize the queen's role as a symbol of power and authority, as well as her connection to the classical ideals of ancient Rome.
