Highlights:
When you purchase 2015 Antique Somalia Elephant 1 oz Silver Coins, the products you receive through this listing come with a presentation box from the Bavarian State Mint.

Obverse
On the obverse of the 2015 Antique Somalia Elephant 1 oz Silver Coin is a distinctive design available only with this date mark. The surface of the coin has an image of two adult African bush elephants walking together in a line across the savannah passing underneath tall trees as birds fly overhead in the sky.
Reverse
The reverse side of 2015 Antique Somalia Elephant 1 oz Silver Coins come with the coat of arms for the Somali Republic. The seal includes a crowned shield with a background field of horizontal lines and a single star in the center. This is reminiscent of the national flag that bears a single white star on a field of blue. The shield is supported on either side by leopards with crossed fern leaves and spears below.
History
The Somalia Elephant Silver Series has long featured coins with .999 fine silver in 1 oz and 1 Kilo weights. These 2015 date marks represent the last year the coins had .999 fine silver content before the 2016 shift to .9999 fine silver. The next year was also notable as the Bavarian State Mint introduced 2 oz, 5 oz, and 10 oz silver coins along with several fractional-ounce silver coins as well.
