Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the Falkland Islands' rich wildlife, including a depiction of a penguin on the reverse side. This design was created by local artist, Graham Hodgson, and it sets the coin apart from other coins in the Elizabeth II series.
