Hello,

as a much cheaper alternative you may get a Slovenian 5 Tolar https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2144.html

It has a head of a goat with loooong horns in it. I don't have it, but many people have if for exchange.

And I'm not sure, but even the Eritrea 1 cent https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2407.html
has what it seems to be a goat?

theres a somalia10 scellini too with a goat year 2000 you can buy for one dollar but that seems like an awful cheap present for a birthday maybe you can find a coin with a goat the same year she was born that would hold some sentimental value good luck in your search hope our input has been helpful

The creature on the second coin is actually an ibex, I believe.

Russian rouble from the nineteen nineties, Rhodesian 25 cents from 1964--these have goats.
 
Edit: I stand corrected; the animal on the Rhodesian 25 cent coin is a sable antelope. x.

An Ibex is a wild goat. (Trying not to be a pedant and failing). Apologies Amber.

I would still go with something silver for a daughter's birthday. It will also have bullion investment value.

No apologies necessary. I just saw the word "goat" and assumed tonyc was referring to the domestic variety. But I could be wrong...it's happened before.  ;)

I'll try to get one of these. I really like the image. But first i'll search local dealers for it !
