Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1996-1997 Australian Gold Bullion Coin (25 Dollars - Elizabeth II, 3rd Portrait - Australian Nugget) is that it has a unique "two-tone" effect, where the coin's reverse (featuring the kangaroo) is minted in a slightly different shade of gold than the obverse (featuring Queen Elizabeth II). This distinctive feature sets it apart from other gold coins and adds to its aesthetic appeal.
