| Additional information |
Part of Armenia's long-running zodiac series, this issue was produced during a period when the Central Bank was aggressively expanding its collector coin program — the mid-2000s saw Armenia enter several bilateral agreements with foreign mints to produce themed commemoratives aimed squarely at the European thematic coin market. KM#174 was struck at a relatively modest mintage typical of the series, making late-found examples in original capsules the norm rather than the exception.
