Croatia only nation in the world to issue coin featuring unborn child.

To celebrate the new millennium back in the year 2000, the Republic of Croatia minted a coin featuring the image of a unborn child. The fetus – a human being living the first moments of his or her life – is symbolic of new beginnings to the people of Croatia, and therefore was the perfect image to mark the start of the 21st century. Croatia is largely Catholic and abortion is a huge cause of controversy in the nation which holds strict laws against it.
