Comment

Part of a series of 24 coins

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of King Richard I, also known as Richard the Lionheart, on the obverse (front side), despite being issued in 2003 and bearing the name of Queen Elizabeth II on the reverse (back side). This is likely a nod to the historical significance of King Richard I, who ruled England in the 12th century and was known for his military campaigns and leadership during the Third Crusade.
