Comment

After the collapse of the government of Somalia in the 1990's, the northern portion of the country, once known as British Somaliland, declared independence. Despite the lack of international recognition, it has one of the better functioning governments in Africa.

Interesting fact

The Panthera Pardus 5 Shillings coin from Somaliland features a unique design, showcasing a leopard's head on the obverse side, while the reverse side features the Somaliland coat of arms and the inscription "Somaliland 5 Shillings 2016." This coin is a non-circulating legal tender, meaning it is not meant to be used as regular currency but instead serves as a collectible item for numismatists and coin enthusiasts.
