Interesting fact
The 1 Cent coin from Mauritius, featuring George V, has an interesting fact: it was the first coin to be issued with a portrait of a British monarch facing to the left, instead of the traditional right-facing portrait. This was a unique feature for a coin of its time and added a touch of distinctiveness to the coin's design.
