Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design depicting James Bond, the famous fictional character created by Ian Fleming, in a bespoke tuxedo, holding a martini glass, and surrounded by the 007 logo and other Bond-themed elements. This design was created specifically for this coin by the Royal Mint's design team, and it is the first time that James Bond has been featured on a British coin.
