Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley, which was specifically created for this coin to commemorate the 450th anniversary of William Shakespeare's birth. The portrait is surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves and acorns, symbolizing Shakespeare's connection to the natural world and his status as a cultural icon.
