300 Ngultrums Year of the Pig

Bhutan's lunar series coins of the 1990s were produced primarily for the international collector market rather than domestic circulation — the ngultrum was pegged to the Indian rupee and ordinary Bhutanese commerce ran on that parity. The Royal Monetary Authority issued these pieces through external minting contractors, and KM#93 is among the more modestly distributed entries in the set.

The 1996 Year of the Pig corresponds to the Bhutanese year 2123 in their traditional Bhutanese lunar calendar.
