Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design, "Little Miss Sunshine," which is not a traditional image of Queen Elizabeth II. It's a more relaxed and informal depiction of the monarch, showcasing her in a warm and friendly manner. This design was created by the artist, Nathan Wyatt, specifically for this coin.
