Interesting fact

The 1997 Marshall Islands Christmas $5 coin features a unique design that showcases a traditional Marshallese canoe, known as a "walap," surrounded by a festive wreath of poinsettias. This design is particularly interesting because it highlights the country's rich cultural heritage and its connection to the ocean and traditional fishing practices.
