Interesting fact
The USS Hartford coin from the Marshall Islands features a unique design, with the ship depicted on the obverse (front) side and a map of the Marshall Islands on the reverse (back) side. This coin is a non-circulating commemorative coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced to honor a specific event or theme. The USS Hartford was a U.S. Navy ship that played a significant role in the American Civil War, and this coin was likely produced to commemorate the ship's history and significance.
