Interesting fact
The 250 Shillings (Cocker Spaniel) coin from Somalia, made of Copper-nickel, features an error in its design. The coin was intended to showcase a Cocker Spaniel dog, but the design mistakenly features a picture of a different breed, known as a "Kooikerhondje" instead. This error has made the coin a unique and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
