Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 70th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, with an image of the Queen's Guards marching in front of Buckingham Palace. The coin's design is particularly special because it was created by renowned artist and designer, John Bergdahl, who is known for his work on various commemorative coins and medals. The coin's silver content and limited mintage of 2,500 pieces also make it a highly sought-after collector's item.
