This 1969 5 pesetas from Equatorial Guinea has tusks, which are from elephants. I also have seen a Thailand silver coin with elephants, but I...
Here is a 1952 Laos 20 cents 2000 Somalia 5 shillings 2005 Somaliland 5 shillings
I wanted to share some of my coins with elephants on them. Please share yours too. I don't specifically collect elephant coins, but I recently...
I deposited some rolls of Susan B. Anthony dollars recently and watched all the employees in the bank huddle up to decide if they were going to...

Thanks for the help. I was thinking maybe it was a 5 kurush too. I thought it was neat too. It was listed on eBay as "unknown Middle Eastern coin"...
