Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the College of Arms, which is the heraldic authority for the United Kingdom and its dependencies. The College of Arms is responsible for granting armorial bearings, such as coats of arms, to individuals and families, and for regulating the use of heraldry in the UK. The coin's design features an image of the College of Arms' building in London, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves and acorns, symbolizing strength and longevity.
