Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 500 Kip (The Gold Panda) 2014 coin from Laos is that it has a unique design that features a panda bear, which is not native to Laos, but is instead native to China. This design choice was made to commemorate the friendship between Laos and China, as well as to highlight the cultural and economic ties between the two countries.
