Interesting fact

The Lucky Waving Cat coin from Tuvalu is a unique and interesting collector's item, as it features a gold-colored cat with one paw raised in a waving motion. This design is based on the popular Japanese lucky charm known as the "Maneki Neko," which is believed to bring good fortune and prosperity. The coin's gold content and limited mintage also add to its value and collectibility.
