Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Roy Keane, a former Irish professional footballer and captain of Manchester United, on its obverse side. This is unusual as most coins feature images of historical figures, political leaders, or symbols associated with the country of issue, rather than sports personalities.
