Interesting fact
The 10 Lipa coin from Croatia, issued in 1995 to commemorate the United Nations, features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. On the obverse side of the coin, you'll find an image of the historic city of Dubrovnik, which is known for its well-preserved medieval walls and red-tiled roofs. The reverse side features a stylized image of a dove, symbolizing peace and unity, which is a common theme in many United Nations-related designs. What's more interesting is that this coin was minted using a special process that involves plating a steel core with a layer of brass, giving it a distinctive golden color that sets it apart from other coins.
