Interesting fact

The 1991 Jamaican $10 silver coin commemorating Columbus's arrival in the New World features a unique design element: a convex surface that resembles the shape of a ship's hull. This design was intentionally crafted to evoke the sense of a ship's prow cutting through the waves, symbolizing Columbus's historic voyage.
