Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 50 Pence - Elizabeth II (Royal Variety Performance) 2015 coin from Jersey is that it features a unique reverse design, showcasing a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, specifically created for this coin by the sculptor and engraver, Stephen Taylor. This design was chosen to commemorate the Queen's attendance at the Royal Variety Performance in 2015, which was held at the Royal Albert Hall in London. The coin's gold plating and limited mintage of only 2,100 pieces make it a highly sought-after collector's item.
