Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, with an image of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a portrait of Boris Becker, a former professional tennis player, on the other. This coin was issued in 1987 to commemorate Becker's historic victory in the men's singles at Wimbledon, which he won at the age of 17, becoming the youngest player to do so at the time. The coin's design is a nod to Becker's German heritage, as he was born in Germany and represented the country in international tennis competitions. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among coin enthusiasts and tennis fans.
