Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features an official portrait of Princess Diana, which was designed by the sculptor Raphael Maklouf. The portrait was originally created for use on a series of commemorative coins issued by the Royal Mint in the United Kingdom, and it has since been used on coins issued by other countries, including Liberia, as a tribute to Princess Diana's memory.
