Some coins are late, such as the 2023 Libertad (I think it was in purpose), and some coins are out so early, like this one. I bought this coin in October 2023.
The African Elephant coins from the African Wildlife Series, originally released in 1999 as the Zambia Elephant, have been minted yearly on behalf of Somalia since 2004. Both gold and silver coins are available in this series; the silver pieces are mostly provided in weights of 1 oz and larger, with a 1 kilo silver coin serving as the culmination.
Coin Highlights:
- 20th anniversary for the Somalia Silver Elephant.
- Contains 1 Troy oz of .9999 pure silver in BU condition.
- The face value is 100 Somali Shillings.
- On the obverse is the Somali coat of arms.
- The reverse features the image of two bull elephants fighting during mating season.

The Somalia African Wildlife series has been popular ever since the series began in 2004. The elephant design has been particularly sought after, just as other major bullion series like the Silver Panda, Silver Kookaburra, and Koala have, because it features a different design every year. It is always something to look forward to with these coins.
The silver series provides stackers with an alternative strategy, whereas the gold coins in the African Elephant Series emphasize 1 oz and fractional-ounce weights. One of the smaller sizes each year in the series is the 1-ounce silver coin. Additional silver weights available are 2 oz, 5 oz, 10 oz, and 1 kg.
The 2024 silver coins and rounds I have featured so far are:

I've always been interested in wildlife conservation. Wildlife contributes to the stability and balance of the natural processes in the world's ecosystems, as well as the beauty of this world.
I hope to see you again soon!
Hugs and Kisses 🥰🌺🤙!!!!
