Interesting fact
The 10 Đồng coin from Vietnam, issued in 1992 to commemorate the 1994 World Cup in the United States, features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized image of a soccer player in mid-kick, with the ball flying towards the goal. The reverse side features the national emblem of Vietnam, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. What makes this coin particularly interesting is that it was minted using a unique process called "splashing," where the metal was poured onto a mold to create a textured, irregular surface. This process gives the coin a distinctive, hand-crafted look that sets it apart from other coins. Additionally, the coin's copper composition and 29.73g weight make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
