| Additional information |
Mongolia's sub-gram gold program targets the fractional bullion market, where pieces like this compete directly against similar micro-issues from the Perth Mint and Valcambi. The argali — the world's largest wild sheep by shoulder height, native to the Mongolian highlands — was listed under CITES Appendix II by the late 1970s, making it a recurring subject for conservation-themed coinage.
