Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Buddha on one side and the Bhutanese king, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, on the other. This coin was minted to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the World Fellowship of Buddhist Youth, which is an international organization dedicated to promoting peace, understanding, and cooperation among Buddhist youth around the world.
