Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 50 Pence - Elizabeth II (WWI - Kitchener) 2017 from Jersey (British Crown dependencies) made of Gold (.999) plated steel weighing 27 g is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 100th anniversary of World War I. The coin's obverse features a portrait of King George V, while the reverse depicts a portrait of Lord Kitchener, a prominent British military leader during World War I. The coin's design is particularly notable because it was created by renowned artist and designer, John Bergdahl. Additionally, the coin's gold plating and limited mintage of only 5,000 coins make it a highly sought-after collector's item.
