Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 500 Pound Elizabeth II (5th portrait; 5 oz Fine Gold) 2021 coin from the United Kingdom is that it has a unique feature - a special privy mark. The privy mark is a small design element that is added to the coin's reverse side, and it is only visible under magnification. The privy mark on this coin is a tiny image of a crown, which is a symbol of the British monarchy. This feature adds an extra layer of collectibility and exclusivity to the coin, making it even more desirable to collectors.
