Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a rare error, known as the "Inverted 8" error, where the number 8 on the reverse side is inverted, appearing as a 9. This error was caused by a mistake during the minting process and only a small number of coins were affected, making it highly sought after by collectors.
