Interesting fact
The 1997 Fiji 10 Dollars Elizabeth II (Iguana) silver coin features an iguana on its reverse side, which is quite unique and interesting. Unlike many other coins that feature the standard portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on their obverse side, this coin showcases an iguana, which is a species native to Fiji, on its reverse side. This design choice adds a touch of tropical flair to the coin and makes it stand out from other coins in the series. Additionally, the coin's silver composition and limited mintage of 50,000 pieces make it a sought-after collector's item for numismatists.
