Comment

In various cultures, the Dolphin symbolizes happiness, power and protection. The bottlenose dolphin is known for its high intelligence and charisma. Its outward appearance appears friendly with its curved mouth, giving the appearance of a permanent smile. Usually located in warm, tropical oceans, the bottlenose dolphin tends to live in groups, and they have been found to remember individual dolphins even after being apart for 20 years. The dolphin is also a highly emotionally intelligent creature, and has the second largest encephalization levels of any mammal on the planet, meaning its brain-to-body mass ratio is one of the highest.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a high-relief design of a bottlenose dolphin on the reverse side, which gives the impression of the dolphin jumping out of the water. The use of high relief creates a unique visual effect and adds depth to the design, making the coin stand out from other coins.
