Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, depicting Admiral Horatio Nelson's victory at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The design shows Nelson's flagship, the HMS Victory, leading the British fleet into battle, with the French and Spanish ships in the background. This design was created by sculptor and engraver, Ian Rank-Broadley, and is exclusive to this coin.
