Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1998 Australian 25 Dollar Gold Bullion Coin (3rd Portrait - Year of the Tiger) is that it has a unique design feature. The coin's reverse side features a tiger's head, which is not a common motif on coins. The tiger's head is depicted in a stylized manner, with the stripes and eyes rendered in intricate detail.
