Interesting fact

The AZA Species Survival Plan - Panda coin, minted in 1997, was part of a series of coins issued by Liberia to raise awareness and support for conservation efforts. The coin features an image of a giant panda on one side and the Liberian coat of arms on the other. The coin was made of copper-nickel, a common material used for coinage, and was a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation but rather for collectors and enthusiasts.
