Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 60th wedding anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. The coin's design features a portrait of the couple on their wedding day, surrounded by a platinum border. The use of platinum is significant because it is a rare and valuable metal, and the coin's high purity level of .9995 adds to its value and collectibility. Additionally, the coin's weight of 94.2 grams makes it a substantial piece, and its non-circulating status means that it was not intended for everyday use but rather as a collector's item or investment.
