Comment

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist Archie McKellar, which depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves and the inscription "Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina" (Elizabeth II, Queen by the grace of God). This design was specifically created for this coin and is not found on any other coins.
