| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two Nile crocodiles are depicted in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field: a large adult crocodile dominates the upper portion with a detailed close-up of its head and open jaws rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail, while a smaller juvenile crocodile with its full body visible is positioned in the lower left foreground. The word CROCODILE appears in the field to the lower right of the adult. The upper legend SERENGETI WILDLIFE curves along the inner border, framed by a beaded circle, and the lower legend SHILINGI ELFU MBILI MIA TANO curves along the lower periphery, with the numeral 2500 prominently displayed in the lower central field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tanzania's large-format silver issues of the late 1990s were part of a broader wave of African wildlife bullion and collector pieces marketed almost entirely to foreign buyers — the domestic economy had no meaningful demand for a coin of this size or price point. The crocodile series specifically targeted the European collector market, where Tanzanian wildlife themes were selling well through dealer networks in Germany and Switzerland.
KM#55 is a five-troy-ounce piece, placing it in the same production tier as similar oversized issues from the Perth and British Royal mints contracted during this period.
