All coins in the Big Cats Series of silver bullion are high-relief issues. A high-relief coin is one that is struck under intense pressure with the blank struck multiple times during the coining process to create greater depth in the obverse and reverse fields with enhanced visual depth to the design elements.
The obverse side of 2020 2 oz Silver Republic of Sierra Leone Big Cats Panther Coins includes a depiction of the coat of arms for the Republic of Sierra Leone. The national seal includes a lion in a passant pose with its right forepaw raised in front of stylized mountains that represent the Lion Mountains in Sierra Leone. The shield is supported by a lion in a rampant pose on either side and flanked by palm trees.
On the reverse face of the 2020 2 oz Silver Republic of Sierra Leone Big Cats Panther coins is a vision of the black panther. The cat’s head is featured in left-profile relief as it gazes out over its territory. The black panther is not a recognized species of large cat. Rather, it is considered a melanistic variation in leopards and jaguars that can occur in the Americas or Asia and Africa, depending upon the specific species in which it occurs.
