Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Representation of the People Act 1918, which granted women the right to vote in the United Kingdom for the first time. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, along with the inscription "1918-2018" and the words "Representation of the People Act" written in a decorative font. The coin's silver content and proof finish add to its collectibility and numismatic value.
