Interesting fact

The 300 Ngultrums (Year of the Dragon) 1996 coin from Bhutan is a unique piece, as it features a rare combination of a dragon and a tiger on its design. This is interesting because dragons and tigers are not typically associated with each other in Asian culture, and it's unusual to see them depicted together on a coin.
