One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design that depicts a stylized representation of the moon's surface, complete with craters and astral bodies, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. The design is meant to evoke a sense of space exploration and the wonders of the universe.
