Comment
The Cantabrian brown bear or Iberian brown bear, or just Iberian bear (Ursus arctos pyrenaicus) is a population of Eurasian brown bears (Ursus arctos arctos) living in the Cantabrian Mountains of Spain. On average, females weigh 85 kg (187 lb), but can reach a weight of 150 kg (330 lb). Males average 115 kg (254 lb), though they can weigh as much as 200 kg (440 lb).Interesting fact
The Brown Bear coin, also known as the "Oso Pardo" in Spanish, was designed by Joan Martí i Alanis and minted in 1984 as a non-circulating coin for Andorra. It's made of silver (.835) and weighs 16 grams. What's interesting about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the brown bear, an animal that is native to the Pyrenees mountains that separate Andorra from France and Spain. The coin's design is meant to symbolize the country's commitment to preserving the natural environment and protecting its wildlife.
