Interesting fact

The 1994 Benin 200 Francs CFA Tyrannosaurus Rex coin features an error in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a Tyrannosaurus Rex, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of Benin. However, the coat of arms depicted on the coin is actually a mirrored image of the correct coat of arms, resulting in an inverted representation of the country's emblem. This error has made the coin a unique and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
