Interesting fact
The Whooping Crane coin's design features an image of a Whooping Crane in flight, with its wings spread wide, set against a background of a lake and trees. The coin's design is particularly interesting because the Whooping Crane is a critically endangered species, with only around 300 individuals remaining in the wild. The coin's design serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts to protect these magnificent birds and their habitats.
