Interesting fact

The 100 Riels coin featuring Norodom Sihanouk, issued in 1994, is a rare and unique coin. It's interesting to note that this coin was produced during a time when Cambodia was transitioning from a socialist to a capitalist economy, and the coin's design reflects this change. The coin features the portrait of King Norodom Sihanouk on one side and the Angkor Wat temple on the other, symbolizing the country's rich cultural heritage and its transition towards modernization. Additionally, the coin's steel composition and 2g weight make it stand out from other coins of its time.
