Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a special 5th portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by sculptor Jody Clark, which was first introduced in 2015. This portrait is the first to depict the Queen wearing a crown and is considered a more mature representation of Her Majesty.
