Comment
Ethiopian or Abyssinian lion (Binomial Name: Panthera leo roosevelti)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Santeem coin from Ethiopia is that it was minted in two different years, 1969 and 1977, despite having the same design and composition. This suggests that there may have been a gap in production or a change in minting practices during that time period.
