Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, showcasing a portrait of King Edward IV, who was the first Yorkist king of England and ruled from 1461 to 1470, and again from 1471 to 1483. This design was created specifically for this coin and is not found on any other coins issued by the Falkland Islands or the United Kingdom.
