2000 Tögrög Bison

Mongolia has no native bison population — the species depicted here is almost certainly the American bison, whose inclusion reflects the global wildlife coin market rather than any domestic fauna. Mongol Bank has been an active participant in that market since the early 2000s, issuing collector silver in themes calibrated to European and North American buyer demand rather than Mongolian zoological heritage.

KM#474 places this among a crowded field of high-weight Mongolian issues that lean on four-nines silver purity as a primary selling point.
