Interesting fact

The 10 Euro Benedictus XVI coin from Vatican City, issued in 2009 to commemorate the Lateran Treaty, has a unique feature. The coin's design, created by artist Daniela Longo, includes a portrait of Pope Benedict XVI on one side and the Lateran Archbasilica on the other. What makes it interesting is that the coin's shape is not circular, like most coins, but instead has a hexagonal shape, resembling a six-sided die. This distinctive design element adds to the coin's collectibility and sets it apart from other coins.
