Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a special 5th portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by sculptor Jody Clark, which was first introduced in 2015. This portrait features a more mature and regal representation of the Queen, with a slightly different crown and a more detailed rendition of her necklace and earrings. This coin is one of the few coins that feature this updated portrait, making it a unique and collectible item for coin enthusiasts.
