Interesting fact

The 5 Möngö coin was designed by a Mongolian artist named D. Davaajantsan, who was also a prominent sculptor and painter. He created the coin's design in a traditional Mongolian style, featuring a horse and rider on the obverse (front side), and the Mongolian coat of arms on the reverse (back side). The coin's design has remained largely unchanged since its introduction in 1959, and it has become a recognizable symbol of Mongolia's rich cultural heritage.
