Here's a few for your collection:

Armenian coins all have birds on them. For example:


Austria 1 Grosche


Lots of other Austrian pre-Euro coins have birds on them.

Bosnia and Herzegovina 2 Convertible Mark


and 5 Convertible mark


Anyway, now that I think of it, many of my coins (a few hundred, I guess) actually have birds on them...

No worries. Just a few more, maybe there's more new for you.

All modern Icelandic coins of 5 Kronur and more have a bit of bird. For example:

And another version:

Might post more later on.

I haven't seen many proofs in this thread...

Most of the Euro are new to me as well, I don't have many Euro at all. They're pretty hard to find here in Australia.

I happen to have a commemorative 1 Dirham coin with a tiny bird on it.




Yugoslavia:
The Novi Dinar coinage from the end of the 20th century had some birds on it.For example, 1 Novi Dinar:



That's it for my collection at the moment, it seems...

Crjenkins, When I was in grade school I wanted to be an ornithologist when I grew up. They called me "bird brain" in 4th grade because of my obsession and extensive knowledge of birds.

Recently, when I discovered the 1894 & 1895 German New Guinea coins (10 Pfennig, 1/2, 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20 Mark), I decided I want to start a bird collection, as well. I do not yet own one of these beauties, as they are a little rare and expensive (honestly I would prefer to hold out for the silver). I am not sure if it would be allowed to post an image I do not own.

Here are a couple of mine which I love partly because the crane is my favorite bird:

Japan 1923 50 Sen:



Japan 1957 100 Yen:

Ask, and ye shall receive...

These are past silver bin finds, however, so they are far from perfect.

1974 British Virgin Islands Silver $1:




1972 Trinidad and Tobago Silver $5:




1946 Guatemala Silver 1/4 Quetzal:




And here is a Zimbabwe cent, which I like, with an African Fish Eagle on top of a crown:




I have others not on this thread, but these seemed more interesting at the moment.
