2018 Tanzania 1500 Shilling 1-gram Gold Big Five Leopard Proof-Like

Your Best Chance to Pet One of Africa's Big Cats

Solitary and territorial, the leopard is among the fiercest animals on the African continent. That is why they are included in the Big Five Game, which is often shortened to "Big Five," a list of the most dangerous animals to hunt on foot. Like the other animals on this list, which constitute the five notes in this series, the animal's appeal extends beyond just the interest of hunters to travelers, who hope to catch a glimpse of one or more while on safari. While getting close to the animals in the wild could be a deadly mistake, this note gives you the opportunity to see two of the cats up close. Making this particular note stand out among those in the series is the fact that the gold coloration closely mirrors the cats' natural color.

• EXQUISITE LEOPARD DESIGN -- This note features a too close for comfort look at two leopards on the African savanna. One is shown closeup at a slight angle, while another looks directly into the eyes of the holder.

• THIN, FLEXIBLE DESIGN -- Struck from one gram of 99.99% fine gold, this thin note has remarkable flexibility that would offer variety to any collection.

• REALISTIC DESIGN IN A PROOF-LIKE FINISH -- The note has a prooflike finish that makes the design appear even more realistic.

• TANZANIA LEGAL TENDER – Each 2018 Big Game Leopard note is 1500 shillings legal tender in Tanzania. Tanzania is an East African nation that is known for its remarkable wildlife. In particular, it is home to much of the Great Migration, an annual massive movement of animals in search of food.

• AN EXTREMELY LIMITED MINTAGE – Just 1,500 of these remarkable pieces were minted!

• INSCRIBED CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY – Your Gold Big Game Leopard note will have a Certificate of Authenticity inscribed on the obverse of the note itself.

Leopards are unique in the animal kingdom in that they closely resemble animals frequently kept as pets, i.e. cats, with the main difference being simply a matter of size. Although they are every bit as beautiful as their domesticated cousins, they are far deadlier. That combination of beauty and power makes them among the most sought-after animals by those who go on safari, as well as those who visit zoos throughout the world. Their strength, ferocity, and territorial natures make it extremely dangerous to get close to them, but this note gives you the chance to see these beautiful creatures up close.
