Big 5 South African Money

IMG_1157.jpeg

I had the same thing done-the coins have plains game animals on them and are also unique. I like the yellow wall behind yours, accentuates the colors (y)
 
There is a good chance that I may never be able to afford to hunt the Big-5, so in my view I did the next best thing. Last time I was in South Africa I made sure I got some quality bills with all the Big-5s and framed the bills to go in my trophy room/office. :)

Great idea and I'm jealous!

Whoa! that's awesome. Hmm I need to go to my bank Monday and check on some foreign currency :)
 
Nice. Good Idea.
I might do the same.
 
Awesome idea and at today's rate, $20.31, it's a lot cheaper.
 
I actually saved some bills and coins from my trip a few weeks ago to do just this.

Also, don’t give-up on chasing the Big 5. There are plenty of affordable opportunities or you can chase non-trophy, management, or female examples of many to save some money.
 
How did my high school math teacher get her picture on South African money?!:Woot:
 
Very cool idea. I’m going to copy you and don’t give up on the big five. A lot of different ways to experience it without breaking the bank
 
Great ideas by both Para45 and Firebird!

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
