Normal coconuts have three round indented markings or "eyes"...
This coconut have three and half !

It is a real coconut, not a virtual one. It belongs to the private collection of Dr R. Bourdeix, in Montpellier, France. There is no coconut palm producing regularly this kind of such a strange coconut. This sample is the only known example of a coconut having only one eye. This phenomenon occurs no more than one time within several thousands of normal coconut.
