Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2004 Canadian $15 Elizabeth II (Year of the Monkey) silver coin is that it features a unique design that blends traditional Chinese motifs with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin's reverse side features a stylized image of a monkey, surrounded by bamboo and cherry blossoms, while the obverse side features a portrait of the Queen. This design was created by Canadian artist Simon Ng, and it was the first time that a Canadian coin had featured a non-traditional design element like this. The coin was also produced in a limited quantity, making it a sought-after collector's item.
