Interesting fact

The leafy sea dragon featured on the coin is a unique and fascinating creature found in the oceans around Australia. It has a body that resembles a sea horse, but it's actually a species of fish, and its leaf-like appearance helps it blend in with its surroundings, making it difficult to spot.
