This is a Mardi Gras Doubloon from the Krewe of Zulu. Zulu is an African American parading organization in New Orleans. They are famous for handing out Coconuts at their parades. They also issue doubloons that feature many of the animals you can find in Africa. This doubloon pays tribute to the African Camel. A great addition to an animal or wildlife collection. There are a number of different animals that Zulu pays tribute to. You may want to try to collect them all. I will be auctioning a number of them over the next few weeks. I have a number of related items up for sale on eBay. If you would like to see them click here. For those of you who don’t know, Mardi Gras doubloons are brightly colored aluminum coins about the size of a silver dollar. They are thrown by Krewe members from Mardi Gras floats. Doubloons usually have the symbol of the Krewe on the front along with the date the Krewe was organized, the back side usually has the theme for that years parade as well as the date. Each Krewe may have a number of different doubloons for each years parade. Usually the silver ones are the most common, followed by a range of colors from red to gold. Some Krewes mint real bronze, silver and even gold doubloons, however these are very rare and seldom put up for sale. Many Mardi Gras doubloons are fairly rare outside of New Orleans, and many are rare even in the city. They make great inexpensive yet unique collectibles or gifts. I am in the process of auctioning a number of doubloons from my collection. The subject matter of my individual doubloon auctions vary a great deal. I have coins for a lot of different themes. If you would like to see my other coins please CLICK HERE.. Buy a number of coins and save on shipping. Thank you for looking at my auction, and have a nice day.
