Interesting fact

The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, depicted on the 5 Dollar coin, was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It was a grandiose tomb built for King Mausolus, a Persian satrap, in the 4th century BCE. The structure was renowned for its beauty and grandeur, featuring intricate sculptures and massive size. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by earthquakes in the 12th century, leaving only the foundation and a few ruins remaining today. The coin's design commemorates the rich history and cultural significance of this ancient wonder.
