Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist Joanna Scott, which showcases a majestic oak tree, symbolizing strength and longevity, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. The design is particularly special as it was created to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II's 75th birthday, making it a truly distinctive and collectible piece.
