Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design of Britannia, the personification of Britain, on the reverse side. The design depicts Britannia standing on the shore, looking out towards the sea, with a trident in her right hand and a shield bearing the Union Jack in her left. This design is a departure from the traditional depiction of Britannia on British coins, which typically shows her seated or standing in a more formal pose. The design was created by artist and designer, David Lawrence, and was specifically commissioned for this coin.
