Interesting fact
The Heliotrope center in the 20 Kwacha (Rhinoceros) 2004 coin from Malawi is a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. Heliotrope is a type of chatoyant quartz that exhibits a cat's eye effect, where a narrow band of light appears to move across the surface of the stone as it is rotated. This feature is rare in coins and adds an extra layer of beauty and collectibility to the coin.
