Interesting fact
The 20 Cents (Kaka) coin from Fiji features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. On the obverse side of the coin, there is an image of a traditional Fijian warrior, known as a "Kaka," which is where the coin gets its name. The warrior is depicted in a standing position, holding a traditional Fijian weapon known as a "Tavioka," which is a type of club. The image of the warrior is surrounded by intricate patterns and designs that are inspired by traditional Fijian art and culture. This design not only serves as a tribute to Fiji's history and culture but also makes the coin stand out from other coins in circulation.
