Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 500 Tögrög coin from Mongolia is that it features a unique design, showcasing the country's cultural heritage. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Undur Geghen Zanabazar, a prominent Mongolian Buddhist leader and artist, while the reverse side depicts a scene from the Mongolian folk tale, "The Legend of the Golden Deer." This coin is a great example of how numismatics can serve as a window into a country's history, culture, and traditions.
