Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a partial gilding, which adds an extra layer of elegance and sophistication to the design. The gilding is applied to certain elements of the coin, such as the lighthouse and the waves, creating a striking contrast between the shiny gold and the silver background. This unique feature makes the coin stand out from other coins in the series and adds to its collectibility.
