08 November 2021: The South African Mint, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the South African Reserve Bank, has launched the long-awaited Big Five Series II collectable coin collection, a sequel to the award-winning first series which was introduced in 2019. Following the issuing sequence of the first series, this latest collection will also follow a staggered release approach that will see the elephant lead the introduction of the series, followed by the lion, rhino, leopard and buffalo, every six months. The second edition of the Big 5 boasts a subtle revision to the obverse design, while the reverse design remains the same as that of the previous series, with the two halves of the animal’s face. The obverse of the first edition of the elephant coins depicted both the face and part of the majestic creature’s body, facing towards the left-hand side. In the new series, the obverse of the coins is dominated by the face of the animal, without any depiction of the rest of its body. The long, downward-pointing tusks on the obverse in series I have been replaced by shorter, upward-pointing tusks, and the elephant facing the right-hand side. The most exciting additions to the Big 5 collection in Series ll are by far the introduction of new coin formats or sizes, something coin collectors around the globe will surely celebrate. 2021 South Africa 5 Rand The Big Five Elephant 1oz of. 999 Fine Silver Coin.
