Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing a traditional Marshallese stick chart, which was used by ancient Marshallese navigators to map the ocean and navigate between islands. The chart is depicted in a spiral pattern, symbolizing the connection between the past and present, and the coin's silver material represents the ocean that surrounds the Marshall Islands. This design not only highlights the rich cultural heritage of the Marshall Islands but also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving traditional navigation techniques in the modern world.
