Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design of Queen Elizabeth II speaking into a microphone, which was created to commemorate the Queen's Golden Jubilee in 2002. This design was only used on coins issued by the Falkland Islands, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic Ocean. The coin's design is particularly notable because it is a departure from the traditional depiction of the Queen on coins, which typically shows her in a more formal and serious pose.
