Gabon 2014 3000 Franks CFA African Springbok 5 Oz Proof and Antique finish Silver Coin

This is the first coin to combine proof quality and antique finish! Issued by Gabon, the coin of  5 oz .999 pure silver features a springbok, the national animal of South Africa. This is the first issue of its kind with the extremely limited mintage of 500 pieces worldwide.

The obverse features the coat of arms of the Gabonese Republic used by the country since 15 July 1963. The emblem combines the symbols of the president’s vigilance and courage, the country’s mineral wealth and movement towards a brighter future. There are also two mottos on the coat of arms: 'Union, Work, Justice' in French and 'We shall go forward united' in Latin.

The micro-engraved image of the African Springbok embellishes the reverse of the coin. Springbok is a small brown and white gazelle easily recognized by its striking body color. These animals inhabit dry river beds and short grass savannah of the central and western parts of South Africa. Unfortunately, springbok numbers have greatly declined within the last 100 years. The animal’s name, the issuing year of the coin, its weight and metal fineness are also indicated on the reverse. This unique 5-ounce silver Springbok comes housed in a beautiful wooden box. Simply a must-have edition!
