The Somalia African Wildlife Series debuted in 2004 with only the African elephant design representing the series. Over the course of 15 years, that collection has grown in popularity and variety. Now, there is a second option for fans of Somalia Silver African Wildlife coinage following the 2018 introduction of the Somalia Silver Leopard coins. Today, 2019 1 oz Somalia Silver African Wildlife Leopard Coins are available to you online from JM Bullion.

Like the Somalia Silver Elephant coins, the Somalia Silver African Wildlife Leopard Coins have a new design element on the reverse side each year. The debut issue in 2018 featured a sole leopard standing on the savanna as it turned back to look over its shoulders. 2019 brings a new design with a mother and her young cub.
All 2019 1 oz Somalia Silver African Wildlife Leopard Coins in this product listing come to you with a protective plastic capsule for individual coins. Each one of the coins in this listing is available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. These coins are gilded specimens that included a thin layer of 24-karat gold on the reverse.
On the reverse of the 2019 Somalia Silver African Wildlife Leopard Coins, you’ll find the new image of the leopard for this date mark. In this design, a young cub playfully slaps its mother in the face with its paw as the mother leopard closes her eyes and looks down. In the background field, the sun emerges from behind stylized clouds in the sky. The primary leopard design features the gilded layer.
Leopards are most commonly found on the African continent, though the species is considered extinct throughout North Africa. Additional leopard populations exist in the Caucasus region and Asia. Leopards do not live in family units, but do maintain strong maternal bonds for several months after birth.
The obverse face of 2019 1 oz Somalia Silver African Wildlife Leopard Coins includes the coat of arms for Somalia. The leopard is a fitting addition to the African Wildlife Series for this nation as the crowned national shield of the Somalia Republic is supported on either side by leopards.
