Beautiful coins, triggersmob! I really like the French coin

Thanks Hondo, that one is from French Somaliland.
I suppose it sort of fits here, there are wings on the cap.

1968 Uganda 1 Shilling's reverse features the grey crowned crane. It is Uganda's national bird, featured on the country's coat of arms (obverse) and flag. This bird is a sacred symbol for Kenya, Namibia, Zambia, and South Africa. Photo of a pair of these cranes from WikiCommons.

South Korea's 500 Won in 2002 featured a Red-crowned or Manchurian crane on the obverse. Fewer than 5000 of these magnificent birds remain in the wild. Photo fromThe International Crane Foundation - Red-crowned Crane.
