Silver Coin ELEPHANT HUNTING 2011 "Art of Hunting” Series

The Mint of Poland presents a series of collector coins "Art of Hunting". The collection presents typical hunting scenes from various  regions of the world. The first coin in the series was the "Duck Hunting" coin, the second is the "Elephant Hunting". Each subject in the  series is minted in very low mintage - only up to 3000 pieces, on a silver blank, of Ag 925, in proof quality.

The African elephant is the biggest land animal. It can measure 4 meters height and weighs between 7.5-8 tons. The difference between the African elephant and the Asian elephant is that the former has much bigger ears and a different head shape.

There are two subspecies of the African Elephant: African savanna elephant and African bush elephant. The physiology of the African  elephant is amazing. These elephants are said to be very intelligent animals.
