Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 100 Pound Elizabeth II (5th portrait; 1 oz Fine Gold) 2017 coin from the United Kingdom is that it has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. The coin has a special "proof" finish, which means that it was struck multiple times to create a highly detailed and polished finish.
