Krause's Standard Catalog of World Coins identifies the animal depicted on this coin as an Ibex, but I have been told by two different sources that it is fact a Chamois, so you can either buy it as the former or the latter. Bulgaria puts out some really nice world coins and this proof silver Crown depicting an Ibex (or Chamois) on the reverse is a brilliant example of the quality of their design and minting. Native to Bulgaria and ranging from the mountains of Europe to Central Asia and North Africa the Ibex is a symbol of the sturdiness of the folk who inhabit the rough terrain of these regions. If you are a lover of world wildlife or a collector of world coins with a spot in your world coins collection for a striking example of tenacity of nature then this beautiful proof silver Crown would be most appropriate as an addition to your world coins collection.
