Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of two iconic British figures, Queen Elizabeth II and Bobby Moore, on its obverse and reverse sides, respectively. This coin was issued in 2006 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of England's victory in the 1966 FIFA World Cup, which was captained by Bobby Moore. The coin's design is a nod to the historic event and the two individuals who played a significant role in it.
