Interesting fact
The 10 Đồng (Diplodocus) coin from Vietnam, issued in 1993, features an image of a Diplodocus dinosaur on its obverse side. Diplodocus is a type of sauropod dinosaur that lived during the late Jurassic period, around 155-152 million years ago. It's interesting to note that the Diplodocus depicted on the coin is not a realistic representation of the actual dinosaur, but rather a stylized version that was designed to be visually appealing. Despite this, the coin remains a unique and interesting collector's item for those interested in numismatics and paleontology.
