The Mongolian Lunar New Year - Tsagaan Sar.

So here we have the Mongolian mungu, nominal - 5. The year of issue of this coin is 1980.

The main holiday, celebrating the Lunar New Year, in late January or early February, is a three-day event that begins with a family feast on the eve of New Year’s Day. The New Year holiday is a time for wearing one’s best clothes, visiting relatives, exchanging gifts, and following ancient rituals of respect for one’s elders.

Buddhists visit the local temple or cairn to give thanks. For the next two weeks at least, the particularly devout observe new-year astrological forecasts, which, for example, encourage business and trade on the fourth day of the new year or restrict travel to even-numbered dates.

Depending on the region, food is prepared in a diverse array of forms. For example, the traditional food in Mongolia for the festival includes dairy products, rice with curds or rice with raisins, a pyramid of traditional cookies erected on a large dish in a special fashion symbolising Mount Sumeru or Shambhala realm, a grilled side of sheep and minced beef or minced mutton steamed inside pastry, steamed dumplings known as buuz, horse meat and traditional cookies Boortsog. Tsagaan Sar is a lavish feast, requiring preparation days in advance, as the men and women make large quantities of buuz as a whole family, along with ul boov, a pastry reserved for both dessert and presentation.
