One of the world’s most popular 1 oz silver coins is the Somalia Elephant. Introduced in 1999 as the Zambia Elephant, these beautiful silver coins were among the first in the world to offer new design elements each year. While the national coat of arms of Somalia features on the obverse each year, the image of the African bush elephant changes annually.

The obverse side of the 2023 Somalia Silver Elephant Coin comes with a depiction of the coat of arms of Somalia. This design is consistent throughout the series and features a crowned shield supported by leopards. The shield has a field of horizontal lines with a single star in the center.

On the reverse face of 2023 1 oz Silver Elephant Coins, you will find the latest image of the African bush elephant from the Bavarian State Mint. This year’s design focuses on the head of the African bush elephant. Set in right-profile relief, the elephant uses its trunk to pull down a tree branch so it can dine on the foliage within the tree.
