Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued in 1998 to commemorate the 1700th anniversary of Christianity in Armenia, yet it was minted in Artsakh, which is a disputed region in Azerbaijan. This highlights the complex history and cultural heritage of the region, where different cultures and religions have coexisted and intersect over time.
