Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Captain William Kidd, a Scottish sailor and privateer who was executed for piracy in 1701. The coin's design is based on a contemporary engraving of Kidd, and it is one of the few coins to feature a pirate as its main subject.
