African bush elephants are the largest, heaviest land mammals today. The bush elephant lives in sub-Saharan Africa’s savannas and plains, while its cousin the African forest elephant lives in denser forests and jungles on the continent. The African forest elephant is visually different from its larger cousin by size. There are also Asian elephants still alive today that represent the second-largest land mammal species in the world.

The African Wildlife Series of Somalia Elephant Coins debuted in 1999 as the Zambian Elephant. The coins used fresh designs each year and were issued for Zambia through 2003. Since 2004, that tradition has carried on with the Somalia Elephant coins.
On the reverse of 2020 1/10 oz Gold Somalia Elephant Coins is the image of two adult elephants. This latest design includes two adults in side-profile relief facing into the center of the design field gazing at each other. Both are adults, but the elephant on the left is clearly the older and more mature of the two as noted by its extremely long ivory tusks.
The obverse of 2020 Gold Somalia Elephant Coins includes the design of the coat of arms for Somalia. This crest features a single star against a background field of horizontal lines all set on a crowned shield. The shield is supported on either side by a leopard and comes with inscriptions of “Somali Republic,” “2020,” and the face value.
