Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Jamaican 10 Dollar (Royal Visit) coin from 1983 is that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a image of the Jamaican national hero, Marcus Garvey, on the other. This is significant because it highlights the country's history and cultural heritage, as well as its ties to the British monarchy.
