Interesting fact
The 10 Euro coin from San Marino commemorating the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's death features a unique design element: the profile of Lincoln's face is created using a technique called "negative engraving," where the surrounding area is engraved deeper than the subject's face, creating a striking contrast that gives the impression of a cameo.
