Gold coin 50 rand South Africa 2025 – Big Five: Elephant 1 oz BU

The Big Five, or Big African Five, is the traditional name for five species of African mammals: elephant, rhinoceros, buffalo, lion, and leopard.
The African elephant (Loxodonta africana) is probably the largest and most impressive member of Africa’s animal kingdom and is usually a symbol of power and strength. “Gentle Giant” is noted for its excellent memory and pronounced social behavior. In the wild, an elephant can live up to 60 years – but to this day the threat from poachers remains great.
