COIN INFORMATION

Each year, the coins of the Rwandan Wildlife African Ounce Series offer a new reverse design element. Each one of these new reverse elements comes with a shared design element, that being the outline of the African continent, and a new element representing a different animal species found on the continent.

The Rwandan Franc was introduced as the currency of Rwanda in 1964. Apart from its regular circulating coinage, the country has also authorised some foreign mints to issue coins under its jurisdiction, which come in a variety of sizes – including in the internationally popular silver ounce (1 oz silver) format, denominated usually as 50 Francs. Like any bullion coin though, their actual value is unrelated to the face value, and is based primarily on the metal content and the spot price of that metal on the commodities markets, This coin is part of the African Ounce series which features a new animal on the reverse every year, and is dedicated to the Martial Eagle, The martial eagle is a large eagle native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is the only member of the genus Polemaetus, and is a species of the “booted eagle” subfamily.

The reverse: design depicts a large relief map of Africa, partly interrupting the rim, Below left, a martial eagle perched on a tree branch, next to its nest in which a baby eagle can be seen, Around left, the name of the coin series: AFRICAN OUNCE, Around above right, the date of issue 2024.

These are protected by two typical Rwandan shields, one on the right and one on the left.
