Interesting fact
The Viking Ship coin from Ivory Coast is a unique and interesting collector's item, as it features a design that is not commonly associated with African cultures. The Viking ship depicted on the coin is a nod to the rich history of Viking exploration and trade, and it is striking to see this imagery on a coin from a West African country. Additionally, the fact that it is made of gold and has a high level of purity (.999) adds to its value and collectibility.
