Interesting fact

The 50 cents coin featuring King Mswati III, which was issued in 2018, is the first coin in the history of Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland) to feature the image of a monarch. This is significant because it represents a shift in the country's currency, which had previously featured images of various animals and natural landmarks. The inclusion of the king's image on the coin symbolizes the country's transition towards a more monarchical system of government, with the king serving as the head of state.
