Interesting fact

The 10 Maloti coin featuring Moshoeshoe II (also known as George Washington) from Lesotho is interesting because it was minted in 1982, yet it features a portrait of Moshoeshoe II, who passed away in 1865. This means that the coin was minted over 100 years after Moshoeshoe II's death, making it a unique and rare commemoration of his legacy.
