Complete set of first Gambian<\/p>\n
coins with the national emblem.<\/p>\n
Interesting coins are<\/p>\n
first set from the Gambia featuring<\/p>\n
national coat of arms on all obverses.<\/p>\n
The unusual national coat of arms combines<\/p>\n
knight’s helmet, oil palm,<\/p>\n
two lions, an ax and a hoe.<\/p>\n
While the two instruments symbolize<\/p>\n
the importance of agriculture,<\/p>\n
lions do not represent African wildlife,<\/p>\n
but originate in history as part of<\/p>\n
British Empire and its heraldic figures.<\/p>\n
The reverses of the coins depict Gambian animals.<\/p>\n
and plants, as well as a sailboat.<\/p>\n
Among the species depicted are the peanut, the double-spurred spur,<\/p>\n
oil palm, Ankole cattle<\/p>\n
and the West African narrow-faced crocodile.<\/p>\n
