Rhino Big Five Mauquoy 5 Oz 5000 CFA Francs Silver Coin Ivory Coast 2019

The armoured giant of the savannah

The African Big Five are the five animals once considered the hardest and most dangerous to hunt: the lion, elephant, rhino, leopard and buffalo. The rhino is one of the largest land mammals – despite weighing over two tonnes it can charge at great speed. Today it is a symbol of the fight to protect wildlife, as poaching has pushed it to the brink of extinction. The Mauquoy high-relief series is one of the most prized collections of wildlife coins.

Coin design

On the reverse the rhino looks straight at the viewer, its huge horn rising right up to the rim. The wrinkled skin, ears and nostrils are struck in ultra high relief that looks like a sculpture from the side, and the antique finish brings out the texture. Around it are MAUQUOY, HAUT-RELIEF, RHINO and 5 OZ .999 AG. Each coin carries its individual number on the edge.

The obverse features the coat of arms of Côte d'Ivoire with an elephant's head, palm trees and a rising sun, RÉPUBLIQUE DE CÔTE D'IVOIRE, the year 2019 and the face value 5000 FRANCS CFA.

Packaging

The coin comes in an elegant box with a certificate of authenticity.

Gift idea

For a collector of wildlife coins and high relief, a safari fan or anyone collecting the whole Big Five series. A spectacular display piece.
