Interesting fact

The Burning Rusalka coin from Cameroon features a unique design that depicts a mythical creature from Slavic mythology, known as a Rusalka, which is a female spirit that inhabits rivers and lakes. The coin's design showcases the Rusalka surrounded by flames, giving the impression that she is burning, which is where the coin gets its name.
