Interesting fact

The Lucky Waving Cat coin from Tuvalu is a unique and interesting collector's item, as it features a gold-colored cat figurine attached to a spring, which allows the cat's arm to move up and down, giving the appearance of waving. This feature is said to bring good luck to the owner, hence the name "Lucky Waving Cat."
