Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin: This medal commemorates King George V's Silver Jubilee in 1935, celebrating his 25th anniversary as monarch. It was produced from aluminium, which was a relatively new material for coins at the time, chosen for its durability and lightweight properties. The medal weighs 4.3 grams, making it significantly lighter than traditional metal coins while still maintaining its commemorative significance.
