Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a posthumous portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, meaning that it was created after her death. This is a unique and rare occurrence in coinage, as most coins featuring a portrait of a deceased person are created during their lifetime. The 6th portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on this coin also makes it a distinctive and collectible item.
