Comment
The striking Hippo is a symbol for strength, courage, and calmness. The large creature has a reputation for being slow and sluggish, but the Hippo can be remarkably agile and aggressive. The strength and complexity of the Hippo makes the animal a great addition to the Republic of Chad Mandala Wildlife series, following the third release of the Mandala Elephant. Each coin in the series will have a unique design and different animal featured.Interesting fact
The Mandala Hippo coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it's not meant to be used as regular currency. Instead, it's often bought and sold by collectors for its unique design and rarity.
