| Additional information |
Belarus issued a twelve-coin zodiac series beginning in 2009, each struck in copper-nickel for circulation — an unusual choice at a time when most national mints were reserving zodiac themes for silver collector issues. The decision to produce these as genuine circulating coinage rather than proof sets reflects the National Bank's push during that period to introduce themed coins into everyday commerce.
