Africa’s Big Five include the leopard, the world’s fourth largest cat. It can be found practically all over the continent (desert areas excluded), which is why it is so closely associated with the Black Continent. This introduction referring to nature will lead us to the presentation of a new coin in the Coins From World offer.
The South African Mint has issued a small collection of five coins with images of the so-called Big Five, Africa’s most dangerous and difficult to hunt animals, in 2020. The leopard variant is – like the numismats dedicated to other animals – made of 1 ounce of pure gold and has a face value of 50 rand. The issue was limited to 500 copies. The image of a cat presented on the reverse delights with the precision of engraving and encourages to invest in such a valuable, as well as aesthetically pleasing and timeless coin. If you are interested in coins from all over the world – e.g. from Africa, specifically South Africa – this coin seems to fit your needs perfectly.
Special features of the coin:
- Coin issued in South Africa in 2020
- 1 oz pure gold
- Part of a collection inspired by the Big Five of Africa
- Attractive design, advanced craftsmanship
- 1 of only 500 pieces available on the market
