Notes

Goitered gazelles are not indigenous to the Nagorno-Karabakh region or Armenia. The decision to feature a goitered gazelle on this 50 Luma coin is likely symbolic. The symbolism could encompass various themes such as agility, freedom, or even conservation efforts. Given that goitered gazelles 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.
