Interesting fact

The Astro Boy coin from Sierra Leone was designed by the Japanese manga artist Osamu Tezuka, who is known for creating the popular manga and anime series "Astro Boy" in the 1950s. The coin's design features a depiction of Astro Boy, also known as Atom, on the obverse side, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of Sierra Leone. This coin was issued as part of a series of commemorative coins celebrating the 50th anniversary of Astro Boy's creation.
