Interesting fact

The 10 Shillings (Pig) 2000 coin from Somalia features a unique design, with a pig on one side and the Somali coat of arms on the other. This is interesting because pigs are not typically associated with Islamic cultures, and Somalia is a predominantly Muslim country. The inclusion of a pig on the coin may have been a deliberate choice to stand out from other Islamic coins or to represent a different aspect of Somali culture.
