I don't think this has been done before, so bring out your Elephants.

I'll get the bull rolling (did you see what I did there?) with this one.

1943 Belgian Congo 2 Francs
Minted in Philadelphia. This type contains a mistake in the legend with "Belgish" instead of "Belgisch" and was rapidly replaced by a round type struck in Pretoria, South Africa.

Nice Hondo. I didn't think it would be long before we saw that jumbo.

Here is the round one from 1946..

Nice one, triggersmob! I picked up mine after reading an article about WWII-era coins minted in the US for other countries.

I'm not sure where I got mine from. In one of the many trades I have done over the years.

Many of Liberia's coins in the 20th century featured an elephant on the obverse and a palm tree on the reverse, such as this 1941 ½ Cent.
