Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique double-effigy design, with both Queen Elizabeth II and King Edward V depicted on the obverse side. This is a rare occurrence in coinage, as most coins typically feature only one portrait. The inclusion of both monarchs on this coin reflects the complex history of the British monarchy and the connection between the two rulers.
