Interesting fact
The Swallow-Tailed Kite coin from Belize features a unique design, with the kite depicted in flight on the obverse side, and the reverse side featuring the coat of arms of Belize. This coin is interesting because it was minted in 1984, but it was not released into circulation, making it a rare and collectible item for coin enthusiasts.
