    Wow, Sonlarson. Nice coins! That Lion has 2 tails? I just noticed that very interesting. Is there any info on why?

    That was the same question my wife asked. The Coat of Arms for the Czech republic has a lion with two tails. It started out as one but later they added the second as a tribute to King Přemysl Otakar II for his help in fighting the Saxons.

    I have one dated the same, and it is identified as an 1882. It has been here with me for over 2 months, so not really my latest acquisition. 1882 Zanzibar 1 p obv.JPG 1882 Zanaibar 1 p rev.JPG
