Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique 5th portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, which was designed specifically for this coin. This portrait shows the Queen wearing the Imperial State Crown, which is adorned with over 3,000 precious stones, including the famous Cullinan II diamond. This design was chosen to symbolize the Queen's long reign and her status as the head of the Commonwealth.
