Comments

13 grudnia 1972 r. był dniem, w którym Zambia weszła w okres jednopartyjnych rządów kierowanych przez partię UNIP Kennetha Kaundy, które trwały do czasu przeprowadzenia wielopartyjnych wyborów 31 października 1991 roku.

Ze względu na wysoką inflację, która rozpoczęła się pod koniec lat 80-tych i trwała do lat 90-tych, monety te wypadły z obiegu do 2003 roku.

Spośród monet z 1972 roku, 4.000.000 zostało wybitych w 1973 roku, 10.000 w 1975 roku, a 2.000.000 w 1976 roku.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

December 13, 1972 was the day Zambia entered a period of one-party rule led by Kenneth Kaunda's UNIP party, this lasted until multiparty elections were held on October 31, 1991.

Due to high inflation starting in the late 1980s through the 1990s, these coins fell out of circulation by 2003.

Of the coins dated 1972, 4,000,000 were minted in 1973, 10,000 were minted in 1975, and 2,000,000 were minted in 1976.
