Interesting fact
The 2 Qirsh coin from Sudan, which was minted between 1966 and 1969, features a unique design on its reverse side. The coin bears an image of a traditional Sudanese boat, known as a "felucca," sailing down the Nile River. This design was chosen to represent the country's rich cultural heritage and its connection to the Nile, which has been a vital source of life and transportation for centuries.
