Interesting fact
The 50 Luma coin from Armenia, minted in 1994, was the first coin in the world to feature a design that changed color when viewed from different angles. The coin's unique "color-shifting" technology was a result of a special coating applied to the aluminum surface, creating a dynamic visual effect that appeared to change the coin's color from bronze to silver. This innovative feature made the coin stand out among other coins in circulation and became a popular collector's item.
