Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it has a unique design feature - the Queen's 95th birthday is commemorated with a special privy mark on the coin, which shows a small image of a corgi, the Queen's favorite breed of dog. This privy mark is a nod to the Queen's love for animals and her dedication to animal welfare causes.
