Comment
Issued as a part of six coins set (images by Charles Snowden Coins):Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design depicting a scene from William Shakespeare's play "Henry V" on the reverse side, which was created by the artist David Lawrence. The design shows King Henry V, played by actor Tom Hiddleston, holding a sword and standing in front of a medieval castle, surrounded by the coat of arms of the British royal family. This design was chosen to commemorate the 600th anniversary of the Battle of Agincourt, which took place in 1415 during the reign of King Henry V.
