Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique depiction of Queen Elizabeth II, with her head transformed into a medusa-like creature, complete with snakes for hair and a menacing gaze. This bold and unconventional design was created by artist Joel Iskowitz and was intended to symbolize the queen's role as a powerful and protective force, much like the mythical Medusa. The coin's antique finish and high-quality silver composition only add to its striking appearance, making it a truly standout piece for collectors.
