Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design depicting Christopher Robin, a character from A.A. Milne's popular children's books, on the reverse side. This design was created by artist and designer, Daniela Booth, and it is the first time that a character from the Winnie the Pooh stories has appeared on a UK coin.
