Interesting fact
The 20 Sene coin from Samoa features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. On one side, the coin features the Samoan coat of arms, which includes a traditional Samoan wooden carving of a falcon, symbolizing strength and courage. On the other side, the coin features a pattern of traditional Samoan tattoos, known as "tatau," which are considered an important part of Samoan culture and are often worn by Samoans as a symbol of identity and pride. This design was created by the Samoan artist, Fiona Pardington, and it's a beautiful representation of Samoa's cultural identity.
