| Reverse description | Central design features a high-relief depiction of two Cape buffalo (Syncerus caffer) standing in savannah grass, rendered in fine detail with prominent curved horns and robust bodies. Behind the animals, a textured relief map of the African continent fills the upper and right portions of the field, its surface evoking a rugged topographic landscape. The legend AFRICAN OUNCE curves along the left periphery, while the date 2015 appears at the upper right. The inscription 1oz FINE SILVER 999 runs vertically along the right border, attesting to the coin's bullion specifications. |
