Comment
Krause 2016 states the mint year as 2009 in state of 2008, possibly by mistake.Interesting fact
The 20 Vatu (Socrates) coin from Vanuatu is interesting because it features a portrait of Socrates, a famous Greek philosopher, on one side, and the Vanuatu coat of arms on the other. This coin is unique because it combines the cultural heritage of ancient Greece with that of Vanuatu, highlighting the diversity and richness of human civilization.
