Interesting fact
The 300 Ngultrums (Year of the Monkey) 1996 coin from Bhutan is unique because it features a rare design element - a crescent-shaped hole in the center of the coin. This distinctive feature was included to symbolize the moon and its association with the monkey, which is said to have been born from the moon's rays in Bhutanese folklore.
