Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing an effigy of King Charles III, who was the Prince of Wales at the time of the coin's minting. This is significant because it marks the first time that a British monarch has been depicted on a coin while still a prince, rather than after their accession to the throne.
