Interesting fact

The Dürer's Rhinoceros coin from Palau features an image of a rhinoceros, which is actually a reproduction of a 15th-century woodcut by the German artist Albrecht Dürer. The interesting fact about this coin is that the image of the rhinoceros was not based on a real-life observation, but rather on a written description that Dürer received from a friend who had seen a rhinoceros in Lisbon. Despite the inaccurate depiction, the coin remains a unique and interesting collector's item.
