2020 South Africa 1 oz Proof Gold Big 5 Rhino NGC PF 69 FD Tumi Tsehlo (w/Box)

 

Discover the untamed spirit of Africa with the 2020 South Africa 1 oz Proof Gold Big 5 Rhino, graded PF 69 and designated First Day by the NGC. Struck by the world-renowned South African Mint, this coin represents the third release in the acclaimed Big 5 Series, honoring the continent’s most legendary animals — the Elephant, Lion, Black Rhino, Leopard, and Buffalo. Each coin is minted in 1 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold and includes an official South African Mint display box.

The Big 5 Rhino Gold Proof Coin captures one of Africa’s most powerful and endangered species — the Black Rhinoceros, native to eastern and southern Africa. Revered for its strength and fierce protective nature, the Rhino symbolizes resilience and balance in the natural world. On the obverse, a striking close-up of the Rhino’s face reveals intricate detailing of its horn, skin texture, and expression — an artwork so vivid it feels almost alive. The reverse features a unique bisected design of the Rhino’s face; when placed alongside another coin, the two halves align to form a complete image, creating a dynamic.
