Comment
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design on its reverse side, depicting a spoon with the Queen's crown on top, which is a playful nod to the tradition of the British Royal Family's coronation ceremony, where a gold spoon is used to anoint the monarch with holy oil. This design was created by the Cayman Islands' own sculptor and artist, Alvin McLaughlin, and it adds a touch of whimsy and cultural significance to the coin.
