Lions on Coins.
October 09, 2015, 11:58:05 AM
The talk about Lions on Belgian coins, made me think about how many countries might have Lions on their coins.
So I will start this off, but please feel free to post pics of Lion (and other big cats) coins.

Thanks for posting Ken.
There are certainly a few UK coins with lions.

Barry, I think Kitty would probably have most of these.  ;D

This one isn't quite a coin, but it belongs on this thread.
