The 1/50 oz Gold Somalia Elephant 2020 in Proof combines two qualities in a single small coin: on one hand, it is a sought-after collector's coin of genuine rarity value, and on the other, full-fledged investment gold. With a mintage of only 1,000 pieces, this issue from the African Wildlife series ranks among the true rarities – and it is precisely this strict limitation that underlies its exceptional appreciation potential.

The substance and actual reason for purchase is the fine gold it contains. The value of these gold coins is based primarily on the physical precious metal and moves in line with the gold price. Gold is the world's oldest currency, a proven store of value for over 6,000 years, which has retained its intrinsic value and its shine over the millennia. Despite its low weight, you are therefore acquiring minted fine gold here – not a mere souvenir, but recognized investment gold.

Design and minting of the Somalia Elephant gold coin

The obverse of the Somalia gold coin Elephant shows two African elephants facing each other and touching with their trunks; in the background, a typical steppe landscape with a mountain backdrop unfolds. The inscriptions "AFRICAN WILDLIFE" and "ELEPHANT" as well as the details "1/50 oz Au 999.9" frame the design around the edge. The reverse bears the coat of arms of the Republic of Somalia with the two upright leopards as shield-bearers, the split minting year 2020, the inscription "SOMALI REPUBLIC" and the face value of 20 shillings. The design of the Elephant Gold series changes every year – one reason why the 1/50 troy ounce gold coin is so popular among investors. At just 11.00 mm in diameter, the fine detail in the Proof finish is particularly appealing and is delivered in a protective coin capsule.

Investment gold in small format – start small, build wealth

Small amounts of gold add up over the years to considerable wealth. This coin is excellent for entering physical gold investment step by step – and equally suited as a gift of genuine investment gold for a personal occasion such as a birthday or christening. Instead of a fleeting present, you hand over a real asset.

• Tax advantage: investment gold is generally exempt from VAT; capital gains are typically tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.
• High liquidity: recognized worldwide, tradable and resalable at any time.
• Proven value preservation: valued by many as an inflation hedge and, especially in small denominations, as crisis protection.
