Interesting fact

The 100 Cents coin from Suriname features a unique design that reflects the country's rich cultural heritage. On one side, the coin depicts the national emblem of Suriname, which includes a shield with the country's motto, "Justitia et Pax" (Justice and Peace), surrounded by two sugar cane plants and a palm tree. The other side features an image of a traditional Surinamese wooden boat, known as a "korjaal," which is used for fishing and transportation in the country's rivers and coastal areas. This design not only showcases Suriname's natural resources but also highlights its cultural diversity and history.
