Interesting fact
The 1 Dollar (The Wedding of Prince Edward) 1999 coin from Sierra Leone is a unique collector's item, as it features an error in the design. The coin was minted with an incorrect date, showing the year 1999 instead of 1998, which was the actual year of Prince Edward's wedding. This mistake makes the coin particularly rare and valuable among collectors.
