Interesting fact
The 10 Dollar coin minted in 1981 to commemorate the royal wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer is a unique collector's item. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an error in the inscription on the obverse side. Instead of reading "Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina," it incorrectly states "Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Rex." This mistake makes the coin particularly valuable among collectors.
