Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that combines the image of Charles III with characters from J.M. Barrie's beloved children's story, Peter Pan. The coin's reverse side depicts a scene from the story where Peter Pan and the Darling children are flying over London, with the famous Big Ben clock tower in the background. This design was created by artist and sculptor, David Knapton, and it adds a touch of whimsy and nostalgia to the coin.
