Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Martin Luther King Jr. on one side, while the other side features a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. This is a unique combination, as Martin Luther King Jr. was a prominent civil rights leader who fought against racial segregation and discrimination, while Queen Elizabeth II is the head of the Commonwealth and a symbol of British royalty. This coin serves as a reminder of the progress made towards racial equality and the importance of recognizing and honoring historical figures who have made a significant impact on society.
