The South African Mint became one of the most respected mints worldwide.
For this time offering a catalog of beautiful collections, the South African Mint presents the Big 5 Series. Honoring the continent's five largest animals through their unique designs, the bush elephant, the African lion, the rhino, the leopard, and the buffalo got imposing depictions, just like the living animals.
The obverse showcases the elephant, one of the five largest African animals in its natural habitat. Beneath this depiction, in a circle, the Coat of Arms of South Africa and the words: SOUTH AFRICA, BIG FIVE 2024.
The reverse displays two close-up depictions of the elephant’s face. The inscriptions on this side, set on a central circle, refer to face value, weight, metal content, and fineness. They read: FIFTY RAND, 1 OZ, and Au 999.9.
We recommend purchasing an additional capsule(s) for the coin(s), otherwise the coin(s) will be packed in a plastic ziplock bag.
