| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece commemorates the 300th anniversary of George II's birth, issued in the same year Charles III's effigy was introduced across the coinage — making it one of the earliest coins to carry the new portrait in a proof format. George II is often overshadowed by his father and grandson, but he was the last British monarch to personally lead troops in battle, commanding at Dettingen in 1743 during the War of the Austrian Succession.
