Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 25 Pounds - Elizabeth II (Spade Guinea shield, 1/4 oz gold) 2022 coin is that it features a unique design that pays tribute to the historic Guinea coin, which was first introduced in 1663 and was used as a gold coinage standard in the British Empire for over 200 years. The Spade Guinea shield design on the coin's obverse (front) side is a nod to this rich history and adds to the coin's collectibility and numismatic value.
