South Africa Big Five 2022 – Rhino – Series II – 1 oz Gold – Polished Plate

You see here the 2022 issue with the Big Five Rhino of the Series II of the famous Big Five series of the SA Mint from South Africa.

The South African coin is produced by the South African Mint. The Big Five Rhino Gold Coin is the third issue of the “Big Five Series II” coin series. Short digression: the “Big Five” accordingly includes the following animals: elephant, rhinoceros, buffalo, lion and leopard. The Big Five Lion gold coin is strictly limited with a mintage of only 500 pieces worldwide and for this reason very popular with collectors and coin lovers.
