Comment

The coins in this series (which included the half and the full sovereign) were sold exclusively by Hattons of London. This series is the world first featuring the double portrait of QEII and Prince Philip on the obverse.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 70th wedding anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. It features an image of the couple on the obverse side, and the reverse side features a portrait of the Queen. The coin's design is unique to Tristan da Cunha, a remote volcanic island in the South Atlantic Ocean, and it has a limited mintage of only 500 coins, making it a rare and collectible item.
