The 2 Ounce Silver Cheetah
SA Mint The African Range
The 2 Ounce Silver Cheetah is a remarkable new release from the South African Mint’s “The African Range”, a premium coin series created to celebrate Africa’s wildlife through high-relief proof minting and world-class artistic design. As the first release in this exciting new range, the cheetah takes centre stage, symbolising speed, focus, elegance, and precision.
This inaugural African Range release explores the cheetah’s hunt through five stages: Survey, Stalk, Chase, Catch, and Repose. The 2026 collection begins with “Survey”, the moment before action, when the cheetah studies its surroundings with complete awareness. This theme gives the coin a powerful sense of stillness, intelligence, and anticipation.
The reverse design captures the cheetah in a surveying stance, alert and poised, while the obverse features a cropped profile of the animal. Both sides are inspired by sculptures from internationally respected South African artist Dylan Lewis, creating a rare fusion of wildlife art, South African heritage, and advanced minting technology.
Struck in 2 ounces of AG 999 fine silver, this high-relief proof coin has a strong visual presence despite its compact diameter of 38.65 mm. The raised relief enhances depth and detail, allowing the cheetah design to feel sculptural and lifelike. Every curve, muscle, and line contributes to a coin that is both technically impressive and emotionally engaging.
With a limited mintage of only 2,500 units, the 2 Ounce Silver Cheetah offers strong collector appeal. It is ideal for those building a South African Mint collection, investing in limited silver releases, or looking for a meaningful African wildlife-themed coin with long-term collectable value.
At Gold Berg International, we offer carefully selected precious metal and collectible products for clients who value authenticity, quality, and meaningful design. The 2 Ounce Silver Cheetah is a standout choice for collectors who want to own the first chapter of the South African Mint’s new The African Range.
