Aanvullende informatie

Zambia's late-1990s bimetallic and novelty coin program was partly driven by the IMF-pressured shift away from high-denomination banknotes, though the 1000 Kwacha face value reflects just how severely the kwacha had depreciated by the turn of the millennium — a consequence of copper price collapses that had gutted the economy since the 1970s. By 2000, 1000 kwacha was worth well under a single US dollar.

The snake series was issued under a wildlife coinage program aimed partly at the collector market, not everyday commerce.
