Interesting fact
The Easter Island Moai depicted on the coin is a representation of the ancient monolithic human figures that can be found on Easter Island, which is now known as Rapa Nui. These Moai statues were created by the early Rapa Nui people between the 10th and 16th centuries and are believed to represent their ancestors. The statues are known for their distinctive features, including their large heads, prominent noses, and strong facial expressions. They were originally placed on platforms along the coast of the island, facing inland, and were believed to have spiritual significance. Today, the Moai statues are considered an important part of Rapa Nui's cultural heritage and are a popular tourist attraction.
