Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 75th anniversary of the formation of the Fleet Air Arm, the aviation branch of the Royal Navy. The coin's design depicts a scene of a naval aviator in a "Black Cat" squadron, which was a nickname given to the Fleet Air Arm's 825 Naval Air Squadron. The design is surrounded by a decorative border that includes the inscription "Naval Aviation - Black Cats" and the coin's denomination. The use of silver in the coin's minting adds to its collectibility and numismatic value.
