The “big five” African animals are popular subjects for commemorative coins of all kinds from many different mints, but Djibouti’s Big Five series of spherical coins are among the most striking takes on the theme. The artwork features this mighty animal in multiple settings against the backdrop of the African savannah. It captures three herd scenes and a close-up portrait of a rhino rendered with skilled fidelity.
Those four distinct sculpted takes on the rhinoceros decorate the spherical coin’s reverse side, with stylized maps of the African continent and the overlaid inscriptions “Big” and “3” decorating a traditional Zulu shield between them. On either side of the apex artwork are the inscription “RHINOS” and “2022.”
The obverse side carries the coat of arms of the Republic of Djibouti, surrounded by the inscriptions “Republique de Djibouti,” along with “Ag999,” “1000 Francs,” and “1 kg” to verify the coin’s face value and the quantity and quality of its silver content.
