One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and Sir Walter Raleigh on the other. This design was created to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Raleigh's voyage to the New World in 1602. The coin's design is not only visually appealing but also historically significant, making it a valuable addition to any coin collection.
