Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of two prominent leaders from different countries and time periods, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and Winston Churchill, on the same coin. This commemorative coin was issued in 1998 to honor the 50th anniversary of their meeting in 1948, which was a significant event in the history of international relations.
