    Description

    The coin in the photos is the one you will receive.
    The reverse contains an interesting quote in Latin, “Quo Fata Ferunt”. “Whither the fates carry [us – inferred]”. It essentially means fate conspires to do us harm. The part about finding an island was left out, it seems.
    This is a reference to a 1609 shipwreck wherein a gale force wind destroyed the ship of some British explorers. They were nearly killed, however, they cash-landed on an island. This island would eventually be known as Bermuda.
