Interesting fact
The Proboscis Monkey coin, minted in 2003, features an image of the proboscis monkey, a species endemic to the island of Borneo, which includes Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei. The coin's design highlights the monkey's distinctive long, pendulous nose, which is believed to be a unique adaptation that helps the species pick up sounds and smells from far away. This fascinating coin is a great example of how numismatics can showcase and raise awareness about the natural world and its incredible diversity.
