Comment
SIMILAR TO KM#173, BUT SAPPHIRE ADDEDInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, also known as the Queen Mother, on the obverse side, which was designed by sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley. The reverse side of the coin depicts a scene of the Queen Mother surrounded by her children, Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward, in a design created by engraver Leslie Durbin. The coin was issued in 2000 to commemorate the Queen Mother's 100th birthday.
