Interesting fact

The 100 Shillings (Grizzly bear) coin from Uganda, minted in 2010, is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced for collectors. Despite being made of silver-plated copper-nickel, the coin still has a relatively low mintage of 10,000 pieces, making it a sought-after collector's item for numismatists.
