Notes
Mountain goats are not native to the Nagorno-Karabakh region or Armenia. The choice to feature a mountain goat on this 5 dram coin is likely symbolic. The symbolism could encompass various themes such as resilience, agility, and adaptability to harsh environments. Given that mountain goats are not part of the local fauna, the design of the coin is more likely to carry a symbolic interpretation rather than an ecological one.
