Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing the Kuwaiti coat of arms on one side and an image of a traditional Arabian dhow (a type of sailing vessel) on the other. This design was created to commemorate Kuwait's rich maritime history and its importance in the country's trading and cultural heritage.
