Interesting fact
The 100 Shillings (Elephant) 2013 coin from Somalia is a unique piece that features a stunning design of an elephant on its obverse side, which is not commonly seen on coins. The elephant is depicted in a natural habitat, surrounded by trees and grass, giving the coin a sense of authenticity and connection to nature. The reverse side of the coin features the Somali coat of arms and the inscription "Somali Republic" in Somali language. This coin is a great example of how numismatics can be used to showcase a country's rich wildlife and cultural heritage.
