Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design that commemorates the 75th anniversary of VE Day, which marks the end of World War II in Europe. The design depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by a wreath of poppies, with the inscription "75th Anniversary of VE Day" and the dates "1945-2020" at the bottom. This coin is a special edition issued by Guernsey, a British Crown dependency in the English Channel, and it is made of gold-plated steel, which gives it a distinctive look and adds to its collectibility.
