Comment

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, a pivotal air campaign fought during World War II between the Royal Air Force (RAF) and the German Air Force (Luftwaffe). The coin's design features an image of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a Spitfire aircraft, which played a crucial role in the battle, on the other. The coin's unique plating of silver (.999) on copper-nickel gives it a distinctive shine and adds to its collectibility.
