Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the end of World War II. The reverse side of the coin depicts Big Ben, a famous landmark in London, surrounded by a wreath of poppies, which symbolize remembrance and sacrifice. The obverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin was issued in 2005 to mark the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II, and it is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation but rather for collectors.
