Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 10 Dollars - Elizabeth II (Rübezahl) 2020 from Solomon Islands made of Gold (.990) weighing 0.622 g is that it features a unique design that showcases the legend of Rübezahl, a mythical creature from German folklore, on its reverse side. Rübezahl is depicted as a bearded man with a large nose, who is said to have the power to control the mountains and valleys. The design is a nod to the cultural heritage and traditions of the Solomon Islands, and adds to the coin's collectibility and numismatic value.
