The Somalia Silver Elephant coin was first issued for the nation of Somalia in 2004. The coins began life with just a silver version available, but today the program has grown into one of the most diverse and impressive offerings in the industry.

Somalia Elephant coins are now available in silver, gold, and platinum, with colorized Day and Night Coin Sets. 2016 marked the addition of a Somalia Platinum Elephant, and for 2017 the program has expanded to include the first-ever release of silver fractional-weight coins, as well as new fractional weights in gold.

These 2017 1 oz Somalia Silver Elephant Coins have a 24-karat gold layering on the African elephant design of the obverse. This popular gilded finish was introduced in the last few years and offers the best combination of silver and gold in one coin.

On the obverse of the Somalia Silver Elephant Coin you’ll find the image of the African elephant standing in the midst of some tall grass on the savannas. In the background, a singular palm tree rises above a traditional thatch-roof hut. The 24-karat gold layering is included only on the elephant design of the coin.

The reverse of the 2017 1 oz Somalia Silver Elephant Coin features the coat of arms for Somalia, with no gilded finishes anywhere on this side. The coat of arms is a heraldic shield with a single star on it, similar to the national flag of Somalia. Engravings of the face value, nation of issue, and year of issue are included on this side of the coin.

Each 2017 1 oz Somalia Silver Elephant Coin in this listing is in BU condition. Coins in BU condition show no signs of wear and tear, though you may notice a range of minor flaws that include breaks in the luster, spotted surfaces, or contact marks.
