Interesting fact

The Pitcairn Islands, where this coin was minted, has a population of only about 50 people, making it one of the smallest populations of any country or territory in the world. Despite its small population, the island has a rich history, including being the final refuge for the mutineers of the HMS Bounty in 1790.
