Interesting fact

The 1989 Marshall Islands First Space Station Crew silver coin features an error in its design. The coin's reverse side shows the image of the space shuttle Challenger, which was actually destroyed in a tragic accident in 1986, three years before the coin was minted. This error makes the coin particularly unique and interesting to collectors.
