Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates Gibraltar's role in World War II. The coin's reverse side depicts a scene of soldiers and military equipment, along with the inscription "Gibraltar 1940-1945" and the words "Their Finest Hour" in recognition of the territory's contributions to the war effort. This design is particularly notable because it highlights the strategic importance of Gibraltar as a British Overseas Territory during the war, and serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the people of Gibraltar during that time.
