Interesting fact

The Panthera Tigris 500 Kip coin from Laos features an image of a tiger on its obverse side, which is a rare and unique design element for a coin. Tigers are not typically associated with Laos, so this coin stands out among other coins from the country. Additionally, the coin's high silver content and limited mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
