Interesting fact

The 1 Guaraní coin from Paraguay, minted in 2003 as part of the country's currency reform, features the national coat of arms on one side and the image of a capybara, a native rodent species, on the other. This unique design choice was meant to symbolize the country's rich natural resources and diversity.
