Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the Battle of Diamond Rock, which was a naval battle fought between the British and French ships during the Napoleonic Wars in 1805. The battle took place near the island of Diamond Rock, which is located off the coast of Saint Helena, and the coin's design features an image of the battle.
