Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 400th anniversary of Sir Francis Drake's circumnavigation of the world. The coin's reverse side features a depiction of Drake's ship, the Golden Hind, along with a map of the world and several navigational instruments. This design is a nod to the historic voyage that Drake completed in 1577-1580, which marked the first time an English ship had circumnavigated the globe.
