African Bullion coins:

 

2019 World’s Wildlife Giraffe Congo 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

The Giraffe is issued for the Democratic Republic of the Congo and carries their emblem on the obverse. Introduced in 2006, it depicts a leopard head, surrounded by an elephant tusk to the left and a spear to the right. The three words underneath it, Démocratie, Justice, Unité, are French for Democracy, Justice, & Unity. This huge country (world’s 11th largest) has had a tumultuous history, reaching a nadir under Belgian rule in the late 19th/early 20th centuries, when millions died under King Leopold II. It remains a problematic country, despite huge natural resources.

 

2019 African Leopard Rep of Ghana 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

The Republic of Ghana Silver African Leopard Coins debuted in 2017 and offer new designs each year on the reverse face. This collection has proven immensely popular with investors. The 2017 coins sold out entirely and the 2018 release sold out in its first day of availability. With such demand, the 2019 coin isnt likely to last long either before its low mintage of 25,000 coins sells out.

Leopards are found in various regions of the world, but this series focuses on the specific subspecies of leopards found on the African continent. Though the African leopard has previously been found on rare occasions in North Africa, today it is most commonly found in sub-Saharan Africa. African leopards are found in both jungle and arid desert habitats in Africa.

 

2019 South African Lion Big 5 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

“The Big Five” term originated when big game hunters visited the shores of Africa to shoot for trophies, and locals warned them about the five most dangerous animals in Africa: the Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Rhino and Buffalo.

The coins will be issued every month, with the first instalment in February 2019. The Second installation features the African Lion. The male lion symbolises royalty and strength in some African cultures, while the lioness represents femininity and motherhood.

 

2019 Rwanda Nautical Series 1oz Victoria Silver Bullion Coin

The Victoria was built by the Basques, one of the most reputed shipbuilders at the time, at the shipyard in the Spanish city of Ondarroa. The ship was named after Santa Maria de la Victoria de Triana, the church where Magellan took an oath of allegiance to the Spanish King, Charles V. ‘s Heemskerck 127 years earlier, the Endeavour continued and rounded the Cape of Good Hope on 13 March 1771 to reach the English port of Dover on 12 July 1771.

 

2019 African Wildlife Leopard Somalian 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

The Second debut from Somalia, the African Wildlife Series “Leopard”. This new series will appear with an annually changing motive. This beautiful coin was struck from one ounce of pure silver in uncirculated quality. The reverse features a full image of a leopard cub playfully stroking its mothers face. In the background is a natural setting of a rocky landscape. The obverse displays the Somalian Coat of Arms with two Leopards on it. Leopards are graceful and powerful big cats. They are the fourth largest cats in the world after Tiger, Lion and Jaguar. No other big cat climbs so high and is as tall as the leopard. In order to protect his prey against predators, he often stores his prey on branch forks. The coins will be delivered in capsules. The mintage is limited to 30,000 pieces worldwide.

 

2019 South African Archosauria Dinosaurs Series 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

One of the mints most famous series is its Natura wildlife-themed proof coins, that have been issued since 1994. Only ever available in gold, the 2018 set headed into prehistory for the first time with a very nice five-coin Archosaurs set. It’s from this that the inspiration for the this new 2019 silver bullion coin has been drawn – specifically the small 1/20 oz gold coin. Depicting a small archosaur called Euparkeria.

The obverse is common to the whole series and quite outstanding. It depicts the fossilised skull, neck and shoulder of an Erythrosuchus africanus – at around 5 metres, the largest predator of its time. Inscribed here is the series title ‘RISE OF THE DINOSAURS’. the issuer ‘SOUTH AFRICA’, the date in Roman numerals ‘MMXIX’ and the sub-title, ‘ARCHOSAURIA’.  The reverse face is even better. Euparkeria leaping for an insect and in full motion is hugely dynamic and far removed from the usual lumbering depiction of prehistoric life that we’re used to. It’s simple and different – a fine change from the usual wildlife bullion coin we’re all used to. The program name ‘NATURA’, the denomination ’25 RAND’, the specific coin title ‘EUPARKERIA’ and the composition ‘1oz Ag999’ are inscribed here and don’t infringe too much on the main image.

 

2019 South African Elephant Big 5 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

“The Big Five” term originated when big game hunters visited the shores of Africa to shoot for trophies, and locals warned them about the five most dangerous animals in Africa: the Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Rhino and Buffalo.

2019 South African Krugerrand 1 oz Silver Bullion Coin

The 2019 Krugerrand continues this legendary tradition in a new metal. Much like its gold sibling, the Silver Krugerrand offers investors a great way to own low-premium bullion. Whereas the 2017 Silver Krugerrand was marketed as a higher-premium collector coin, the 2019 as was the 2018 edition is priced at a slim margin over melt. Its market premium is comparable to the Silver Maple Leaf, Britannia, Kangaroo, and Philharmonic. Unlike the other sovereign coins in its class, however, the Krugerrand offers multi-generational demand and recognition. Gold investors have turned to the Krugerrand for over 50 years; now they can own this trusted coin in silver too.

The 2019 1 oz Silver Krugerrand also features its face value as part of the obverse design.

New Zealand Bullion Coins:

 

2019 Christmas Mickey Mouse 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

This stunning .999 fine Silver coin depicts the lovable Mickey Mouse in a winter wonderland scene, dressed as Santa. There is a mintage of only 15,000 coins available, making this Mickey Mouse Christmas coin a great choice for gift-giving or collecting.

 

2019 Donald Duck Disney 1oz 85th Anniversary Silver Bullion Coin

Donald Duck is now 85 years old, and like Mickey Mouse’s 90th birthday, is getting gold and silver bullion coins to mark the occasion. It’s a pretty standard release from the mint again, with just a 1oz 0.9999 gold and a 1oz 0.999 silver version on offer. Both carry the same basic design, and in our view, it’s a better one than the mouse received. A decent waste-up portrait of this ultra-iconic character takes centre stage, with an increasingly popular starburst pattern of radiating lines filling the background field. This works with varying degrees of success on many of today’s bullion coins – sometimes an enhancement, sometimes detrimental – but it fits in here because of the showbiz connections.

The obverse features the age-old effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank Broadley.

 

2019 Fantasia Mickey Mouse Disney 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

The 1940 film “Fantasia” has gained critical acclaim over the years, and has also won many awards.

The storyline is similar to the 1797 German poem, and follows an old sorcerer, Yen Sid, and his apprentice, Mickey Mouse. In the scene, Mickey sees Yen working on his magic, and when he leaves, Mickey decides to put on the sorcerer’s hat and try magic on a broom to help complete his chores. He oversteps his limits and is unable to stop the magical broom. Yen Sid comes in just when Mickey is stuck in a whirlpool and is able to help him.

The Lion of Judah is the symbol of the Hebrew tribe of Judah (the Jewish tribe). According to the Torah, the tribe consists of the descendants of Judah, the fourth son of Jacob. The association between Judah and the lion, most likely the Asiatic lion, can first be found in the blessing given by Jacob to his son Judah in the Book of Genesis.

The Lion of Judah is also mentioned in the Book of Revelation, as a term representing Jesus, according to Christian theology. The lion of Judah was also one of the titles of the Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie and was depicted on the flag of Ethiopia from 1897-1974.
