Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist Joanna Drage, which depicts a majestic oak tree, symbolizing strength and longevity, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. The design is meant to represent the Queen's long reign and her commitment to the Commonwealth.
