Piscivores have a diet that consists mainly of fish, though many will also consume other aquatic prey such as crustaceans, mollusks, or aquatic insects. Otters are semi-aquatic mammals found on every continent except Australia and Antarctica. They inhabit a wide range of environments, from marine coastlines to freshwater rivers and lakes.
For the obverse design of the 2024 Cameroon Silver Otter, you will find a depiction of the animals set to feature in this series. The central background field features open water stretching toward mountains on the horizon. Around the edge of the design field, you’ll notice the images of an otter, seal, seagull, and other creatures expected to appear in the series.
In the reverse design of 2024 1 oz Silver Otter Coins, the mint features the image of an otter. It is shown in the foreground as it emerges from the water to eat fish leaping above the stylized waves in the foreground. Some species of otters, like sea otters, spend most of their time in the water, while others, such as river otters, divide their time between land and water.
