Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1993 Gambian 20 Dalasis "Rendezvous in Space" silver coin is that it features an error in its design. The coin was intended to commemorate the 1993 Space Shuttle mission, but the design mistakenly depicts the Space Shuttle Challenger, which had tragically exploded in 1986, killing all seven crew members on board. This error makes the coin a unique and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and space enthusiasts.
