Interesting fact

The Great Wall of China, which is featured on the coin, is not only an ancient series of fortifications built to protect the Chinese Empire from invasions, but it is also a symbol of Chinese culture and history. It stretches over 13,000 miles, making it one of the longest structures ever built.
