Comment
Note textured background to obverse and reverse.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 100 Pound Elizabeth II (4th portrait; 1 oz Fine Gold) 2015 coin from the United Kingdom is that it features a unique textured design on its fields, which gives it a distinctive look and feel. The textured design was created using a special technique that involves applying a pattern of tiny, raised dots to the coin's surface. This technique not only adds visual interest to the coin, but it also helps to differentiate it from other coins and makes it more difficult to counterfeit.
