oh..my...god..
I am currently salivating like whoa over these two coins, especially the fishing owl..I don't know why but I absolutely love these coins. I have looked all over the place in the last thirty minutes and can't find anyone even listing a single coin in the series(other than first coin, which has basically nothing in stock yet)

I need these coins. Mintage is 1000 on each I think. I'm not sure if there is a non-proof version.

No idea on the price. It looks sorta like the coins were designed to be sold as a set. Seems like each coin is a different size.

Hey Mojo,

I like the first one okay... but that 2nd coin is as busy as they get. At first, I thought it was the backside of the first coin...

They also have the "Rhino" one that I was thoroughly unimpressed with.

I like the owl one - they just put too many tree branches. If the branch behind the owl was not there it would be a better design. Any one get a price - I press inquire and nothing happens.

I think those are amazing coins, especially the fishing owl, but I agree it would be better without the branch. I really like the BAOBAB TREE even though the design is rather busy. Great find though! I'll be interested to see how much they cost.

Honey, I wasn't impressed with the rhino, either. It was a very crude rendition of a rhinoceros, he looks like he is melting.

I like the owl, but I LOVE the second one. Let us know if you find them somewhere. Wasn't planning on doing anymore numis, but may have to make another exception for this one!

RE: oh..my...god..
lol, will do. I emailed the south african mint asking them where I could find a dealer that actually has this coin. Hopefully they respond. not everyone does.
