Interesting fact

The 5 Meticais coin from Mozambique features a unique design that reflects the country's rich cultural heritage. On one side of the coin, there is an image of a traditional Mozambican woman wearing a colorful headscarf and carrying a basket of fruit. This design was created by the Mozambican artist, Félix Mussa, and it symbolizes the country's strong agricultural traditions and the importance of women in Mozambican society.
