Zambia 5-NGWEE (KM205)

Zambezi Indigobird

That's a Zambezi Indigobird (aka Twinspot Indigobird aka Green Indigobird) resting on a branch, facing right.

On January 1, 2013, Zambia introduced a new series of coins consisting of 5, 10, and 50 ngwee pieces, plus a one kwacha coin. The older coins are still legal tender, but because their metal value is higher than their face value they have all but disappeared from circulation.
