Interesting fact
The Black Crested Gibbon coin from Laos has a unique feature - it has a built-in security measure. The coin contains a small, transparent window that is visible from both sides. When held up to the light, the window reveals an image of a gibbon, adding an extra layer of authenticity to the coin.
