Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 30th anniversary of the first moon landing, which is depicted on the reverse side of the coin. The design features an astronaut descending onto the moon's surface, with the words "SPLASHDOWN 1969-1993" and "TURKS & CAICOS ISLANDS" inscribed above and below the image. The coin's unique design and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for both coin enthusiasts and space enthusiasts.
