One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the Palace Flypast, a historic event that took place in 2002 where a formation of aircraft flew over Buckingham Palace to celebrate the Queen's Golden Jubilee. The coin's design shows an image of the Queen's aircraft flying over the palace, surrounded by a detailed pattern of the Union Jack flag. This coin is a rare and collectible item, making it a valuable addition to any coin collection.
