The skin on the buffalo's neck is up to 5 cm thick to protect it during dominance fights with other males.

For this coin series, the South African Mint has come up with something special: when two coins are placed side by side, a complete close-up portrait of a buffalo is formed. Adding more coins creates an entire herd of buffalo. The coin's design features the graceful and particularly detailed portrait of a South African buffalo. Below are the country of origin "SOUTH AFRICA," the series name "BIG FIVE," and the minting year "2023." The reverse side of the coin showcases two halves of a buffalo portrait.
