With The African Range, the South African Mint is presenting its first high-relief series and combines exceptional minting craftsmanship with the impressive sculptures of the renowned South African artist Dylan Lewis. 
The series kicks off with the “Survey” issue, which depicts the cheetah in a moment of intense focus. In the coming years, the story of this fascinating big cat will continue through additional issues, accompanying the cheetah through the various stages of the hunt. The result is an extraordinary series that, year after year, evolves into an impressive body of work.

The African Range takes modern coin art to a new level. Inspired by the world-famous animal sculptures of South African artist Dylan Lewis, these richly detailed high-relief coins create an impressive three-dimensional effect. Rather than a mere motif, each issue presents a small work of art crafted from precious metal, blurring the lines between sculpture and coin.

With their extraordinary depth and expressiveness, the designs impressively capture the beauty and authenticity of African wildlife.
