Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, a significant event in World War II where the Royal Air Force defended the United Kingdom against the German Air Force, and it features an image of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse side, signifying the coin's issuance under her reign.
