2026 Somalia 100 Shillings - African Elephant
African Wildlife Series — 1 oz Pure Silver .9999
Description of the room
The Somali Elephant series is one of the world's most dynamic investment coin collections. Its unique feature is its annually changing design, which appeals to both investors for the purity of the silver and collectors for the aesthetic appeal of the design.
The Reverse Design: The 2026 edition design showcases the power of the African elephant. The design captures the textured details of the pachyderm's skin and the curve of its tusks against a savannah backdrop. The edge of the coin features inscriptions indicating the series theme, the animal's name, and the weight and purity of the precious metal.
Obverse and Sovereignty : The obverse features the official coat of arms of the Republic of Somalia, consisting of a shield with a central star, supported by two leopards. The year of minting, 2026, and the legal tender value of 100 Shillings are clearly visible. Although the coin is minted by private refineries (often in Germany), it is legal tender in Somalia.
Minting Quality and Purity This coin is minted in silver of exceptional purity of 99.99%. In Mint State (BU), it displays a brilliant luster and clear fields. As this is an investment coin, it is handled with care to avoid major contact marks, thus preserving the fine details of the African wildlife.
