Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2002 Canadian Manitoba Folklorama 50-cent silver coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases the cultural heritage of Manitoba's Ukrainian community. The coin's reverse depicts a traditional Ukrainian Easter egg, known as a pysanka, which is a symbol of hope, renewal, and new life.
