Interesting fact

The 10 Gourdes (Geronimo Chiricahua) 1971 coin from Haiti features an image of Geronimo, the famous Apache leader, on its obverse side. This is an interesting fact because Geronimo was not Haitian, but rather a Native American leader from the Apache tribe in the United States. It is unusual for a coin from one country to feature a historical figure from another country, especially one who was not directly related to Haiti or its history.
