Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an error in the design. The coin was minted with a portrait of George Washington facing to the right, whereas the actual portrait on the US dollar bill faces to the left. This error was not corrected, and the coins were still issued and sold. This mistake has made the coin particularly sought after by collectors, and it is now considered a rare and unique piece.
