Interesting fact
The Year of the Goat coin from the Democratic Republic of the Congo is considered lucky because, in the Congolese culture, goats are seen as symbols of good luck and prosperity. The coin's design features a goat standing on a mountaintop, surrounded by the words "Année du Mouton" (Year of the Goat) and "République Démocratique du Congo" (Democratic Republic of the Congo). The coin's mintage was limited to 5,000 pieces, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
