Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases an illustration of one of Aesop's most famous fables, "The Tortoise and the Hare," on its reverse side. This design was created by the artist, Jo Goodberry, and it's the first time that an Aesop's fable has been featured on a coin issued by Saint Helena.
