Interesting fact
The 300 Ngultrums (Year of the Snake) 1996 coin from Bhutan is a unique piece, as it features a rare combination of a snake and a dragon on its design. This is a fascinating fact, as snakes and dragons are not typically depicted together in Bhutanese culture. The coin's design is a reflection of the country's rich cultural heritage and its unique blend of Buddhist and folk beliefs.
