2012 was, according to the Chinese calendar, the "Year of the Dragon" and many countries issued coins commemorating this date.
Australia, Belarus, Benim, France, Kazakhstan, Laos, Niue, Russia, Singapore, Somaliland, Togo and Tuvalu are a few of these countries, but not all of them.
I will show you today the 2012 1,000 Shillings from Somaliland.
The info below comes from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somaliland
"Somaliland, officially the Republic of Somaliland, is a self-declared state, internationally considered to be an autonomous region of Somalia. The government of the de facto state of Somaliland regards itself as the successor state to the former British Somaliland protectorate, which, in the form of the briefly independent State of Somaliland, united as scheduled on 1 July 1960 with the Trust Territory of Somaliland (the former Italian Somaliland) to form the Somali Republic."
This coin weights 1oz (31.1g) with 99.9% silver purity and Brilliant Uncirculated finish.
It was minted at Geiger Edelmetalle, Germany.
The reverse shows a Chinese Dragon, with the word dragon in Chinese.
The obverse show the National Emblem.
