Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, which took place on June 2, 1953. The coin's design features a portrait of the Queen on the obverse side, while the reverse side depicts a stylized image of the St. Edward's Crown, which was used in the coronation ceremony. The coin's silver content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists and fans of the British royal family.
