Interesting fact
The 5 pence coin from Guernsey featuring Elizabeth II's 4th portrait, which was minted from 1999 to 2010, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins of the same denomination. The coin's obverse (front) side features a non-magnetic material, which means that it will not attract magnets. This is unlike most other coins, which are made of magnetic materials. This feature was incorporated as a security measure to prevent counterfeiting.
