Additional information

Issued as part of Armenia's ongoing wildlife conservation series, this piece commemorates the bezoar ibex (Capra aegagrus), whose wild populations in the Caucasus region have faced sustained pressure from habitat loss and hunting. Armenia ratified the Convention on Biological Diversity in 1993, and the conservation coinage program that followed reflected genuine legislative effort rather than ceremonial gesture.

KM#167 was struck by a third-party mint to the standard 28.28g/.925 silver specification shared across dozens of contemporary commemorative programs worldwide — a cost-effective arrangement that kept issue prices accessible without domestic minting infrastructure.
