Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, but it was actually issued during the reign of Queen Victoria. This is because the Turks and Caicos Islands, a British Overseas Territory, was still using the old coinage system from the Victorian era in the 1970s. The coin was minted in 1976-1977, but it bears the image of Queen Elizabeth II, who ascended to the throne in 1952. This makes it a unique and interesting collector's item for numismatists.
