Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that depicts a missing scene from the Bayeux Tapestry, which is a famous medieval embroidery that tells the story of the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. The missing scene depicted on the coin shows King Harold's knights engaging in a fierce battle, and it was created by artist and historian, Dr. Jane Hawkins, using historical research and artistic interpretation. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item for anyone interested in history, numismatics, or art.
