Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, which took place on June 2, 1953. The coin's design features a portrait of the Queen, surrounded by an ornate border and the inscription "ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA" (Elizabeth II, by the grace of God, Queen). The reverse side of the coin depicts a scene of the Queen's coronation, with the Archbishop of Canterbury placing the crown on her head. The coin's silver content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists and fans of the British royal family.
