Interesting fact

The 300 Ngultrums (Year of the Sheep) 1996 coin from Bhutan is unique in that it features a rare combination of a traditional Bhutanese design, such as the depiction of a sheep on one side, and a modern, stylized portrait of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck on the other. This blend of old and new elements makes the coin stand out among other coins in the series and adds to its collectibility.
