The African Lion in Pure Gold

The 2024 Liberia African Lion 1/1000 oz .999 Gold Coin in Card captures the majesty of the “King of the Savannah” in a unique collectible format.

On the obverse, the coin features a bold portrait of a lion with the inscription AFRICAN LION. The reverse carries the numismatic details, including purity and weight. Surrounding the coin, the presentation card enhances its appeal with vivid imagery. The front depicts a savannah sunset with a resting lion, while the reverse showcases two playful cubs in the African steppe. Together, the coin and card create a powerful tribute to strength, courage, and protection.

Symbolism and Craftsmanship

For centuries, lions have symbolized bravery, guardianship, and resilience in African culture and mythology. They remain a timeless emblem of power and endurance, revered both spiritually and as part of ongoing conservation efforts. This coin honors that heritage through a design that harmonizes detailed imagery with fine gold craftsmanship.

In addition, the illustrated card elevates its value as a presentation piece. Whether given as a symbolic gift or added to a collection, it combines meaningful design with the appeal of real gold.
