Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of George Washington, the first President of the United States, on one side, and the coat of arms of Senegal on the other. This is a unique combination, as George Washington has no direct connection to Senegal or West Africa. It's a fascinating example of how numismatics can bring together different cultures and historical figures in a single artifact.
