    I don't know how, but I don't have a single Bear in my collection. There are a number of Swiss pieces in my collection but not a single bear on any of them.

    Bern has bears, plus the shooting medals. I just don't have them.

    Does this count? Paddington Bear on a UK 50p dated 2018 - currently very common in circulation.

    I think my only bear other than Greenland is from Bern. As it turns out I have a full type set of Greenland "Danish Colony" and "Danish State" 1926 - 1964 bears along with a couple of 1922 tokens. I wasn't trying for the whole set, it just happened. Think I've posted this one before. My bear from Bern.

    Here is a bear I used to have. It went to another CT member. Sell, trade, swap...I forget now. Iron, pretty neat item. 1920 Aachen 25 p obv.JPG 1920 Aachen 25 p rev.JPG Someone dream up a new theme, please. I am out of bears and out of ideas.

    1889 Ethiopia 1/4 birr. Does this count as a flag or is it just a banner? 1889 ET 1-4 birr obv.JPG 1889 ET 1-4 birr rev.JPG

    I'd call it a flag.

    Of course it counts, Paddy. After all who couldn't love a bear dressed in an overcoat, scarf and hat? Beats a polar bear anytime.
