COLLECTOR'S CHECKLIST

Somalian Elephant Complete Set Checklist

This checklist starts at 2004, the first year under the Somalia designation — the same program ran under Zambia's name from 1999, but most collectors treat the Somalia-era coins as the practical start of a focused date run. Every entry is a genuinely different design, the same design-collecting appeal the Chinese Panda offers.

A tick mark tells you what you have — it doesn't tell you what you paid, what it's worth today, or where you keep it. BullionKeeper does.

FAQ

Why doesn't this checklist start in 1999?

The elephant program ran under Zambia's name from 1999 to 2003 before the designation changed to Somalia in 2004 — this checklist covers the Somalia-era run most collectors treat as the practical starting point.

Is every year on this checklist a different design?

Yes — the reverse elephant design has changed annually since 2004, similar in spirit to the Chinese Panda's yearly-changing artwork.
