Interesting fact
The 100 Đồng (Caracal) 1996 coin from Vietnam is a unique collector's item, as it features a rare animal species - the caracal - which is not commonly featured on coins. The caracal is a wild cat species native to Vietnam and other parts of Asia, known for its distinctive reddish-brown fur and long legs. The coin's design showcases the caracal in its natural habitat, adding to its appeal for collectors interested in wildlife and conservation.
