The fourteenth issue of the African Ounce Series from Rwanda is dedicated to the Okapi. The motive of the silver coin features an image of the African continent and an okapi with a young animal. The coin design also includes the inscriptions "AFRICAN OUNCE", "2021" and "1oz FINE SILVER 999". The reverse depicts the coat of arms of Rwanda. Okapis are shy even-toed ungulates, which are distinguished by their characteristic coloration and are also known as "forest giraffes". Their habitat is limited to the Central African rainforest in the Congo. With a population of only 10,000 - 35,000 animals, the okapi is considered a highly endangered species. The African Ounce Series with annually changing motive honors a different African species every year. The limited silver proof coin is delivered in a coin capsule including a certificate of authenticity.
