Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the Lion's family, which is not a common theme in coinage. The obverse of the coin features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverse depicts a lion and its cubs in a natural habitat, surrounded by foliage and trees. This design adds a touch of whimsy and charm to the coin, making it stand out from other coins in the series. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting process adds to its value and collectibility, making it a sought-after piece for coin enthusiasts.
