Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Jutland, which was a major naval battle during World War I. The battle took place on May 31 - June 1, 1916, and was the largest naval battle of the war. The coin's design features a depiction of the HMS Warspite, a British battleship that played a key role in the battle, along with the dates "1916-2016" and the inscription "Battle of Jutland."
