Comment

The North American F-100 Super Sabre is part of the first generation of American supersonic fighters known as Century Series Fighters, along with its Soviet counterpart, the Mikoyan-Gurevitch MiG-19 Farmer. This aircraft was nicknamed Hun by its pilots, who were very fond of it (Source: www.wikipedia.org).

Interesting fact

The F-100 Super Sabre coin from Marshall Islands features an error in its design. The obverse side of the coin, which should have featured the portrait of the President of Marshall Islands, instead features a picture of a F-100 Super Sabre fighter jet. This error was not corrected, and the coin was still issued and sold to collectors. This mistake makes the coin particularly unique and interesting for collectors.
