The Big Five series of silver coins from the South African Mint are celebrations of the continent’s most iconic, majestic, and sometimes dangerous wildlife, well known as coveted items for the dedicated bullion collector. A particularly striking entry in the series is the ultra-limited 2019 Proof South African Silver Big Five Elephant 2-Coin Set, showcasing a fascinating reverse design and now available to order from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Where the term Big Five once signified the most difficult African animals to hunt, today it refers to the continent’s most magnificent and impressive wildlife species, and the majestic elephant certainly qualifies as one of the kinds of animals that’s simply unforgettable for anyone fortunate enough to see them close-up. The subject species of the Big Five coins are all currently endangered, and part of the series’ purpose is to bring attention to these iconic animals and to raise awareness for conservation.
The 2019 South African Silver Big Five Elephant 2-Coin Set is a truly unusual and remarkable entry in the series. Sporting a dazzling proof-quality finish and high-relief sculpted imagery, these coins are specially designed to be viewed in pairs for full effect and come packaged in a unique double capsule for ease of display. JM Bullion ships these limited-issue coins in box packaging, fully insured and with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Each coin features a detailed close-up portrait of an elephant as an obverse image, with the Republic of South Africa’s coat of arms beneath in a blackened circular inset. The inscriptions “South Africa” and “Big Five 2019” adorn a framing rim band.
Front-facing partial close-ups of a pair of elephants decorate the reverse side of each coin, along with a circular inset with the inscription “1 oz” and a narrow rim band inscribed “Five Rand Ag 999.” Intriguingly, when both coin’s reverse designs are displayed side by side, a third elephant’s head emerges from the combined edges of each coin’s artwork.
