Additional information

Issued by the Bank of Uganda in 1999 as a novelty commemorative, this piece belongs to a category of "coin-on-coin" issues that embedded or affixed actual foreign circulation coinage onto a host planchet. The attached piece is a 5 Euro cent coin — notable because the Euro did not enter physical circulation until January 2002, meaning the affixed piece is almost certainly a pre-release specimen, a prototype, or a post-production addition applied retroactively, which raises genuine questions about the assembly date and authenticity of the attachment itself.
