Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Falklands War, also known as the Malvinas War, which was a conflict between Argentina and the United Kingdom in 1982. The coin features an image of HMS Conqueror, a British nuclear submarine that played a key role in the conflict. The coin's design also includes an image of Queen Elizabeth II and the inscription "Elizabeth II Queen of Jersey."
