500 Tögrög Da Vinci Equestrian

This piece belongs to a broader wave of Mongolian commemorative issues from the early 2000s, when the Bank of Mongolia aggressively entered the collector coin market with themed silver rounds bearing no meaningful connection to Mongolian history or culture. The da Vinci equestrian subject almost certainly references the unfinished Gran Cavallo commission — the monumental bronze horse Leonardo designed for Ludovico Sforza in the 1480s, never cast in Leonardo's lifetime after French forces used the clay model for target practice in 1499.
