Interesting fact
The 2001 Jamaican UNICEF Silver Coin features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. The obverse side of the coin depicts a traditional Jamaican folk singer, known as a "mento" singer, playing a guitar. The mento style of music is a blend of African and European musical traditions and is an important part of Jamaica's cultural identity. The reverse side of the coin features the UNICEF logo and the coin's denomination. This coin was issued to commemorate the 60th anniversary of UNICEF and to raise awareness about the organization's mission to support the health, education, and protection of children around the world.
