Description obverse

Presents a striking, finely-detailed close-up presentation of the rhino. The South African coat of arms is displayed in a circular inset at the bottom rim. Inscriptions within the rim-band include “SOUTH AFRICA - BIG FIVE 2020"

Description reverse

Features a unique design that by placing two coins side by side, the partial head images of two rhinos visually produce the image of a third rhino’s full head in the center between the two coins. A small circular inset centered in the field displays “1 oz” and is surrounded by a narrow band, which includes the inscriptions “FIVE RAND Ag 999"
