1977 Guyana - 10 Cents Jaguar Supporters: Two jaguars support the shield. The one on the left holds a pickaxe, while the one on the right holds sugar cane and a stalk of rice, representing labor and Guyana's key agricultural industries.

Dearborn, since almost all of Guyana's coins have this coat of arms, how can you say that this particular coin has an agricultural theme? Or do all of Guyana's coins have an agricultural theme, such as this Guyana 10 Dollars 1996 that celebrates Traditional Gold Mining? 
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

I have to agree, not really an agricultural theme, which means the focus of the design, not just an element of it.

Quote: The two jaguars rampant, holding a pick-axe, a sugar cane, and a stalk of rice, symbolise labour and the two main agricultural industries of the country, sugar and rice I do understand this as depicting agriculture, but I cannot get past the use of "theme" in the title. I guess we could leave judgment to the OP if they ever come back.
