When early game hunters coined the term Big Five, they did so to describe the most difficult animals to catch on foot in South Africa. Today, the Big Five is a term used more generously to simply hail the five most magnificent animals in the region. The chosen five are the African elephant, lion, cape buffalo, leopard, and rhino. If you go on a safari, simply catching a fleeting glimpse of any one of these iconic creatures will take your breath away.

The obverse side of each coin in the 2019-2021 South African Big Five 5-Coin Set depicts one of the Big Five animals. These consist of the elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, and rhino. These are close-up images that allow you to mainly see the face of each animal. You will also find the South African coat of arms on each coin, as well an inscription featuring the series name and date.

On the reverse of the coins in the 2019-2021 Silver Big Five 5-Coin Set are dual images of each respective animal. These images are shown in extreme close-ups and almost look as though the animals are morphed together. Also included are the words 5 Rand, 1 oz, and Ag .999.

Each 2019-2021 Silver Big Five 5-Coin Set includes capsules and a beautiful wooden presentation box. The box is in a rectangular shape, which allows all five encapsulated coins to sit in a row. It’s the perfect way to display your complete Big Five Series I collection. You will also receive a Certificate of Authenticity from the mint.
