Despite their ecological importance and cultural significance, African bush elephants face numerous threats, primarily due to human activities. Habitat loss, fragmentation, and conflict with expanding human populations have significantly reduced their range. The African Wildlife Somalia Elephant issue calls attention to these splendid creatures each year with a new design honoring the largest land mammal on planet Earth. Now, 2025 1 oz Somalia Silver Elephant Coins are available online from JM Bullion.

For the obverse of 2025 1 oz Silver Elephant Coins, the Bavarian State Mint features the national coat of arms of Somalia. This seal of the Somali Republic includes a shield at the center with horizontal lines and a single star. The shield is supported on each side by a leopard and the border of the design field features a beaded element.

In the reverse design of the 2025 Somalia Silver Elephant, this year’s design shows a lone elephant marching across the savanna. As the elephant marches into the foreground, you can see trees and shrubs in the near foreground, while mountains stretch out across the distant horizon. In the upper corner, the sun rises into the sky.

The diet of an African bush elephant is diverse and substantial, with adults consuming up to 300 pounds of vegetation daily. Their feeding habits, which include pushing over trees, stripping bark, and creating clearings in dense vegetation, significantly impact their environment. This behavior helps maintain open grasslands, creates pathways for other animals, and disperses seeds, earning elephants the title of “ecosystem engineers.”

These 2025 1 oz Somalia Silver Elephant Coins are available individually in plastic flips. Multiples are housed in protective tubes of 20 coins or in Monster Boxes of 500 coins. Each box holds a total of 25 tubes and all coins in this listing come in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
