Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of King James I on the obverse side, while the reverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This is a unique design choice, as King James I ruled England from 1567 to 1625, while Queen Elizabeth II ascended to the throne in 1952 and is still reigning today. This coin brings together two different eras of British history in a single commemorative piece.
