Additional information

Djibouti's central bank has issued a succession of wildlife-themed silver pieces aimed squarely at the collector market — this giraffe issue among them. These are not coins that entered circulation; they exist as numismatic products, struck to order and sold through international distributors.

KM#69 is a modern bullion-adjacent type with no meaningful monetary history attached to it.
