Interesting fact
The 1 Cent (Independence) 1976 coin from Seychelles was designed by a local artist named Georges C. Fontaine. The coin features a unique depiction of a traditional Seychellois boat, known as a "pirogue," on one side, and the Seychelles coat of arms on the other. This design was chosen to commemorate the country's independence from British colonial rule, which was achieved on June 29, 1976.
