Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and Francisco Pizarro on the other, which is unusual as most coins feature a prominent figure or a national symbol on one side and the other. Additionally, the coin was minted in 1988 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Pizarro's discovery of the Galapagos Islands.
