Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features an image of Winnie the Pooh and Piglet, which is a departure from the traditional depiction of Elizabeth II on British coins. This unique design was created to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the beloved children's character, Winnie the Pooh.
