Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1987 Sierra Leone 5 Golde World Wildlife Fund coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the country's commitment to conservation. The coin's obverse side features an image of a lion, while the reverse side features a depiction of a elephant, giraffe, and a bird, all of which are native species to Sierra Leone. This design not only highlights the country's rich biodiversity but also serves as a reminder of the importance of protecting these magnificent creatures and their habitats. Additionally, the coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists and wildlife enthusiasts alike.
