Under the magnifier
Every fold of skin, the long horn, in gold: the African Animals Rhino 2025 up close.
Up close the motif side shows how finely the animal is engraved: the frosted relief on a mirror field, with the frame of triangles and the year 2025.



The value side
The Big Five in gold: the African Animals Rhino 2025 turned over.
Rhino, buffalo, elephant and leopard carry the same picture on the value side, and so do the gold coins: the elephant in the middle, the buffalo and the rhino on the left, the lion on the right, the leopard in front, an acacia above and the coat of arms of Liberia below. With them REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA and the face value of 25 dollars. Big game hunters once called the 5 animals hardest to hunt on foot the Big Five.

The coincard
A card like an evening on the savannah: the African Animals Rhino 2025.
On the front a painted rhino looks across an orange ground, with the words “Afrika Gold Nashorn” and the window holding the coin. On the back 2 rhinos stand under an acacia against the evening sun, above them the German saying “Ein stiller Gigant, Sinnbild von Kraft und Beständigkeit”: a silent giant, a symbol of strength and constancy.




From die to coin
Mirrored in the die first: how the African Animals 2025 are made.
Every side of a coin begins as a die. Here stand the dies of the silver ounces Elephant, Leopard and Rhino 2025: the animal lies mirrored in them, and on the elephant the year reads “25 … 20”. Only striking turns the picture the right way round.
- Reversed in the dieWhat is on the left in the die ends up on the right of the coin. That is why the motif is laid out mirrored in the die.
- 2 dies at onceWhen the coin is struck, 2 dies press on the blank at the same time, one for the motif side and one for the value side.
- ProofFor proof quality the blanks and dies are polished, and each coin is struck several times. That gives the mirror field, while the motif stays frosted.

The value of this coin does not rest on the design, but on the precious metal it contains – the design is the personal touch, the fine gold the actual reason to buy.

The gold of this edition comes in concentrated form. As one of the coveted gold coins from the "Animals of the Land" series, the rhino joins an entire family of African wildlife designs – from the lion to the elephant to the leopard. Anyone specifically looking for a strictly limited collector's coin with a small mintage will discover a particularly rare variant here. What remains decisive, however, is that you are acquiring full-fledged investment gold, whose price follows the world market price for gold.
A Silent Giant of the Savanna – The Design
At the center stands the rhinoceros in a dynamic pose: head raised, its distinctive horn pointing forward. Finely engraved lines faithfully trace the folds of its skin, while an African savanna with grasses and the characteristic acacia tree opens up in the background. The year "2025" appears to the right of the animal, and the edge is adorned with a geometric pattern of dark triangles – an echo of traditional African ornamentation. The series' shared value side brings together Africa's "Big Five" – elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, and rhinoceros – complemented by the inscription "Republic of Liberia," "25 Dollars," "AU 9999," the fine weight designation "0.5g," as well as Liberia's coat of arms.
A silent giant – a symbol of strength and endurance. This very endurance is also inherent in the precious metal itself.
Struck in Proof Quality – The Highest Level of Refinement
The coin is issued in Proof, the most elaborate minting quality of all. Characteristic features are the deep black, mirror-like background and the finely matted relief surfaces, which lend the rhinoceros plastic depth. This gold proof look is created through multiply polished minting dies and careful processing. Each piece is delivered protected in a thematically designed coincard – ideal for permanently preserving the delicate proof surface in flawless condition.

Part of a Strong, Limited Series
The 0.5g rhino coin does not stand alone. It is complemented by its sister editions featuring the lion, elephant, and leopard, and continues in the 1 ounce silver variant of the same design as well as in the larger 1/4 ounce gold editions. Related in design are the well-known African Wildlife coins from Somalia and the classic Big Five gold coins from the South African Mint in South Africa. The advantage of the small 0.5-gram denomination: a low entry price combined with strict limitation at the same time – a format that makes entry into physical gold particularly accessible.
Small Format, Genuine Gold Investment
Gold is humanity's oldest currency and has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. It possesses intrinsic value, has never had a price of zero, and is recognized worldwide as a means of payment and exchange. This is exactly what makes this coin appealing: its value develops in line with the gold price, it is tradable at any time, and can be sold on without complication. At Kettner Edelmetalle, the coin is available VAT-free; profits from the sale of physical gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. In this way, even small amounts of gold add up over the years to a considerable asset – a solid building block for inflation hedge and crisis protection.
And yes: for occasions such as birthdays, christenings, or Christmas, this edition is also a special choice – you are not giving a mere gift, but genuine, minted investment gold whose value is anchored in the precious metal. Wealth that endures, passed on from generation to generation.
