Here's a nice looking coin. I imagine it had a hard time being accepted in vending machines with that shape. Someone needs to watch her curves. Seriously though this coin is pretty interesting. Scalloped is what the edge shape is called which is pretty cool. There's a nice prancing zebra on the reverse with "Senti Kumi" above it and "10" below it. I'm not sure what the difference is between between Senti Tano and Senti Kumi but they are all still spendable and not two totally different currencies. Then again I'm not sure I could spend this considering the exchange value is about 1/8 of a U.S. cent. Compare this 1/8 to the $0.35 collector value and you see that this coin is pretty valuable.
