Interesting fact

The 1000 Kwacha (African Zebra) coin from Zambia, issued in 2014, features a unique design that showcases the country's rich wildlife heritage. The coin's obverse side features the iconic African zebra, while the reverse side bears the Zambian coat of arms. The coin's unique feature is its use of Nordic gold plating on stainless steel, giving it a distinctive golden hue that sets it apart from other coins. This coin is a sought-after collector's item, not only for its unique design but also for its limited mintage of only 10,000 pieces.
