One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of two historical figures, Napoleon Bonaparte and Horatio Nelson, on opposite sides of the coin. This design was created to commemorate the bicentenary of the Battle of Trafalgar, which took place in 1805 and was a significant naval victory for the British Navy, led by Nelson, over the French and Spanish fleets, led by Napoleon. The coin's design serves as a symbol of the complex historical relationships between these two leaders and their respective nations.
