Silver Elephants at Silver.com
Silver Elephants are not only some of the more unique coins on the market, but they’re also one of the more popular options. This coin program has a history tracing back to 1999. While it’s a relatively newer coin program, the history can be a little confusing. Learn more about Silver Elephants right here at Silver.com.
Silver Elephant Background
These coins are struck by the Bavarian State Mint, located in Munich, Germany. From 1999 to 2003 these coins had the financial backing of Zambia. Since 2004, Silver Elephants (which are intriguingly part of the African Wildlife Series) have been issued by the nation of Somalia.
Even more interestingly, while these coins are financially backed by Somalia, the Somali Republic has never acknowledged that the nation supports these coins.
Unlike most coin programs, the reverse image changes annually. Initially, these coins had a purity of .999 silver, however, beginning in 2016 the purity was upgraded to .9999 pure silver.
Furthermore, 1 oz coins from 1999 to 2006 have a face value of 1,000 shillings. 1 oz coins issued since 2007 have a face value of 100 shillings.
Sizes Available
Coins in the series are available in the following sizes:
- 1/10 Troy oz
- 1/4 Troy oz
- 1/2 Troy oz
- 1 Troy oz
- 2 Troy oz
- 5 Troy oz
- 10 Troy oz
- 1 Kilogram (32.1507 Troy oz)
Unique Strikes and Options
Along with BU coins, this series releases several numismatic options.
- Proof: Struck multiple times to give the coins a mirrored effect in the design background.
- Gilded: Thin layer of 24-karat gold on the reverse.
- Colorized: Colorized reverse.
Additionally, these coins are also issued as part of unique sets. One example is the 7-coin collection. This set, issued in 2024, has an issue limit of just 300. This 7-coin collection features 7 BU coins ranging from 1/10 Troy oz to 10 Troy oz. The total weight of the set is 18.85 Troy oz.
Also available are Baby Boy/Girl coins. These 1/10 Troy oz coins are available in themed presentation cards to celebrate a new baby boy or baby girl.
