Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the XX Commonwealth Games, which were held in Glasgow, Scotland in 2014. The coin's design features a depiction of the Commonwealth Games logo, along with the year "2014" and the name "Glasgow" written in a curved line above the logo. The coin's reverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, as is customary for coins minted in the United Kingdom. The use of a silver piedfort, which is a type of coin that is struck multiple times to create a thicker and more detailed design, adds to the coin's collectibility and numismatic value.
