Comment
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an orangutan on the reverse side, which is a unique design choice for a coin. The orangutan is depicted in a naturalistic pose, with its arms stretched out and its fur rendered in detail. This design was chosen to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Jersey Zoo, which is known for its conservation efforts and its commitment to protecting endangered species. The inclusion of the orangutan on the coin serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and protecting the animals that call it home.
