Interesting fact

This coin features a portrait of King Edward VII on the obverse side, while the reverse depicts the royal crown and the inscription "Edwardus VII Rex Imperator" in Latin, meaning "Edward VII, Emperor." The medal was designed by British artist Bertram Mackennal and minted specifically for distribution during the coronation ceremony in 1902.
