The Rwandan Wildlife Series has been a steady favorite for silver coin shoppers since its start in 2008. Struck by Germany’s BH Mayer Mint, the series adds a new African animal each year—from the Silverback Gorilla that kicked things off to the latest release for 2026, the Spotted Hyena. Each design highlights native wildlife from across the continent. Now, you can order the 2026 1 oz Rwanda Silver African Ounce Spotted Hyena Coin online from BullionMax.

On the obverse of the 2026 1 oz Silver African Ounce Spotted Hyena Coin, you’ll find Rwanda’s national coat of arms. This detailed emblem brings together symbols of the nation: a traditional woven basket at the center, flanked by sorghum and coffee branches. A cogwheel sits beneath the basket and a rising sun appears above. Traditional shields stand on each side, and a rope with a knot circles the design to symbolize unity.

For the reverse of 2026 Rwandan Silver African Ounce Spotted Hyena Coins, you’ll notice the familiar outline of the African continent that appears on every issue in the series. In the lower-left field, a Spotted Hyena stands with its young cubs. Known for their complex social groups and effective hunting, these predators are far more than scavengers. Their spotted coats and the well-known “laughing” calls make them easy to recognize in the wild.

Spotted hyenas live across much of sub-Saharan Africa in many different habitats. You can find them on open savannas and grasslands like the Serengeti, as well as in woodlands, semi-desert areas, and even higher elevations up to about 4,000 meters. They adapt well to their surroundings and prefer open or lightly wooded terrain that suits their pack behavior and hunting style.

These 2026 1 oz Rwanda Silver African Ounce Spotted Hyena Coins are offered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Each coin comes sealed in protective plastic and represents the 19th design in the long-running Rwandan Wildlife Series.
