Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique selective gold plating on the design, which adds an extra layer of depth and detail to the coin's design. The gold plating is applied only to certain areas of the coin, creating a striking contrast between the shiny gold and the copper-nickel background. This special feature adds to the coin's collectibility and makes it a truly distinctive piece.
