Remember “Finding Nemo”? Well, I just found “NEMO” in the least suspected place: on the side of the One Pound coin.
As it turns out Nemo is Latin for “nobody, no one” and in this context is part of the “Nemo me impune lacessit” motto (No one attacks me with impunity).
More on Wikipedia
You will also find, that different One Pound coins have different inscriptions on them.
Shot with available light (desk lamp) and some white paper used as a reflector to bring out the details on the shadow side of the coin.
