In 1999, the Bavarian State Mint introduced a series of silver coins that would go on to become the Somalia Elephant Series. Part of a broader collection of coins known as the African Wildlife Series, the Somalia Elephant Series is now available in silver, gold, and platinum as of 2016. That same year saw increases in the silver purity of coins and later introductions of more weights for investors. Provident Metals currently has 2022 Somalia Elephant 1/10 oz Silver Coins with Baby Girl presentation cards available to purchase online.
