Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Wright brothers' first powered flight, which took place on December 17, 1903. The coin's design depicts the Wright brothers' Flyer aircraft, along with Queen Elizabeth II, who was the reigning monarch at the time the coin was issued. The combination of these two elements makes for a fascinating and unique collector's item.
