Interesting fact
The 1996 Gibraltar Elizabeth II (Napoleon) circulating commemorative coin is unique in that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte on the other. This is because Gibraltar was under British rule at the time, but Napoleon was a significant historical figure in the region, having been exiled there in the early 19th century. The coin's design serves as a nod to both the territory's British heritage and its connection to Napoleon's legacy.
