Australia,1 dollar and 20 cent, 2010.  150th anniversary of Burke's expedition. 

I'll make an exception for this horse, because there's a camel with it.

Another tongue in cheek play on the theme.  I am somewhat stretching this one, so let me know if I am out of bounds  ;)



RIC 14a: VALENTINIAN I (364-375). Follis. Siscia.

Obv: D N VALENTINIANVS P F AVG. Diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right.
Rev: GLORIA ROMANORVM / Q K P / B SISC V. Emperor advancing right, holding labarum and grasping captive.

Figure out what the beast is  :)
