2025 3 oz Proof Cook Islands Silver Burst Rhino Coin

The white rhinoceros, despite its name, has gray skin rather than white. The name is thought to come from the Afrikaans word wyd, or wide, referring to its broad, flat lip. As the largest of the rhino species, males can weigh up to 5,000 pounds. Two subspecies exist today: the southern white rhino and the northern white rhino, which is critically endangered.

Broken pieces around the animal suggest it has shattered the field itself. White rhinos stand out for their large size, wide square lips built for grazing, and two horns, with the longer one capable of growing more than four feet in length. **History** The white rhinoceros is one of Africas Big 5, a term once used by hunters for the five most dangerous animals to track: lion, leopard, elephant, Cape buffalo, and rhino. Normally calm, white rhinos will charge when threatened, reaching speeds of 30 mph and using their horns to defend themselves, which made them a challenging target for hunters years ago. **Ordering** Please contact BGASC if you have any questions about silver coins for sale.
