2004 South African Birds of Prey Silver Coins: 2 1/2 c Tickey and R2 Crown


Discover the allure of South African numismatic treasures with this remarkable 2004 collector's set. Included in this offering are two stunning silver coins, the 2 1/2 c Tickey and R2 Crown, known for their exceptional proof quality and captivating designs celebrating the mesmerizing wildlife of South Africa.


This exclusive series began in 1997, initially showcasing "South Africa's Marine Life" before transitioning in 2003 to the captivating theme of "Birds of Prey." In this set, the focus lies on the Verreaux's Eagle-Owl and the Pearl-spotted Owlet, representing Southern Africa's largest and smallest owls, respectively.


The R2 Crown coin features the powerful Verreaux's Eagle-Owl (Bubo lacteus) on its reverse side, accompanied by the denomination "R2." On the obverse, you'll find the South African coat of arms, the date "2004," and the inscription "South Africa" in all official languages of the country.


The smaller companion, the 2 1/2 c Tickey, features the captivating Pearl-spotted Owlet (Glaucidium perlaturn) along with its denomination. On the Tickey's obverse, the classic protea design is displayed, accompanied by the date "2004" and the words "South Africa."


These coins beautifully depict the intricate relationship between humans and owls, portraying the various beliefs, perceptions, and symbolism associated with these majestic creatures across cultures and time. Owls have been revered and feared, considered wise and foolish, connected to witchcraft and medicine, as well as symbolizing the weather, birth, and death.
Beyond their intrinsic value as legal tender, these silver coins pay homage to the captivating birds of prey that have fascinated and inspired humanity for centuries. Whether you are a dedicated numismatist or an admirer of wildlife, this collector's set is a must-have addition to your collection.

Place your bid today and seize this incredible opportunity to acquire these exceptional pieces!
