African Silver Bullion Coins

The Somali Elephant bullion coins are quite attractive.  The image on the reverse changes annually.  This is an ongoing series, with quite a few attractive coins.

This coin comes in a variety of sizes.  The silver coins include fractional coins, which are coins of less than one ounce.  There are tenth, quarter, and half-ounce coins available.  Larger coins include the two-ounce, five-ounce, ten-ounce, and one-kilogram coins.  This is the series to consider for an abundance of sizes.

The Republic of Congo has a beautiful Silverback Gorilla coin, which as a unique reverse design annually.  This is an impressive series.  The coins feature the head of the Silverback Gorilla in an annual pose.

While the silver Krugerrand has been minted in other years, 2018 is the inaugural year for the bullion version.  This coin is highly sought after.

The Republic of Chad issues silver bullion.  The most attractive of the bullion coins from Chad is the Lion.  The coin depicts the head of a male lion with an impressive mane.

Rwanda issues a wildlife series.  These coins change animals annually.  The 2018 coin is the impressive giraffe.  The reverse shows giraffes on the left, and the continent of Africa on the right.  The split between the animal of the year and the continent of Africa is the norm for this series.

This series is perhaps the most attractive of the wildlife coins.

In addition, Rwanda has a series of silver bullion coins showing sailing ships under full sail.  The 2017 coin presents the Santa Maria, Columbus’ flagship.  The 2018 coin shows the HMS Endeavour, Nelson’s ship of discovery.  These coins are beautiful, even though they deviate from the wildlife coins that comprise most of the African nations’ silver bullion.  This series is well worth consideration for its excellent designs. 

African silver bullion should not be overlooked in a collection.
