Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Köpejek coin from Tannu Tuva (Russia) is that it features a unique design that reflects the region's cultural heritage. The coin's obverse side depicts three horses, which are an important symbol of Tuvan culture and represent strength, freedom, and prosperity. The reverse side features a stylized image of a yurt, which is a traditional Tuvan dwelling, surrounded by a circle of animals and other symbols that reflect the region's natural resources and cultural traditions. The coin's design was created by the Russian artist, Ivan Dubas, and it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
