Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique Gothic Crown design, which is a departure from the traditional depiction of the royal crown on British coins. The quartered arms on the crown are a nod to the coat of arms of the United Kingdom, adding an extra layer of symbolism to the design.
