Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 25 Riyals - Khālid III (Mona Lisa; Trial Strike) ND (1970) from Sharjah (United Arab Emirates) is that it features a unique design that is not found on any other coin. The obverse of the coin features a portrait of Sheikh Khālid III, while the reverse features an image of the Mona Lisa, Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting. This unusual design was created as a trial strike and was never officially released into circulation, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
