Buy Somalia Leopard Silver Coins – Munich's Annual Big Cat Series

The Somalia Leopard silver series is a sister programme to the Somalia Elephant – struck by the same Bavarian State Mint (HMzA) in Munich under an official Somali state licence, but featuring the African Leopard (Panthera pardus) in an annual-design format. With 17 products at CelticGold, the Leopard series offers the same Munich quality and Somali legal tender authenticity as the Elephant, with the visual drama of Africa's most elusive and adaptable big cat.

The African Leopard is the most widely distributed of all the large cats – found across sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa, the Middle East and South Asia – and the most elusive: largely nocturnal, supremely adaptable, capable of living within a few kilometres of human settlements without being detected for years. Its habit of hauling prey twice its own weight up into trees to prevent theft by lions and hyenas is one of the most remarkable demonstrations of strength in the animal kingdom.
