Interesting fact

The 10 Sen coin from Indonesia, issued between 1951 and 1954, features a unique design that reflects the country's rich cultural heritage. On one side, the coin depicts a stylized image of a traditional Indonesian fishing boat, known as a "perahu," while the other side features a portrait of Sukarno, the country's first president. This coin is interesting not only because of its design but also because it was produced during a time of great change and transition in Indonesia, as the country gained independence from the Dutch in 1949 and began to establish its own government and economy.
