Part of a wave of Mongolian commemorative gold issues produced in the late 1990s, when the Bank of Mongolia aggressively entered the collector coin market through partnerships with European minting and marketing firms — a revenue strategy common among smaller nations with limited hard currency reserves. The actual striking was contracted out, almost certainly to a European facility, as Mongolia had no domestic capacity for fine gold coinage at that scale.
At 1.24 g of .9999 gold, this is a fractional piece sized to the 1/25 oz market.
