Interesting fact

The 50 Teňňe coin from Turkmenistan features the country's former leader, Saparmurat Niyazov, on its obverse side. Niyazov ruled Turkmenistan from 1991 until his death in 2006 and was known for his authoritarian rule and personality cult. The coin's design was changed in 2007, a year after Niyazov's death, to feature a new portrait of the country's current leader, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow. This change reflects the shift in political power and ideology in Turkmenistan after Niyazov's death.
