For the obverse of the 2024 17.5 Gram Proof Silver Butterflies Diaethria Clymena Coin, the mint features the coat of arms of the Republic of Cameroon. The national emblem offers a spade-like shield with a set of scales at the center topped by a star. There are battle axes that across behind the shield.
In the reverse design of 2024 Proof Silver Cameroon Butterflies Diaethria Clymena Coin, you will find a colorized field with the namesake butterfly showcased. The butterfly is shown beneath a 3D, domed section that reflects the magnifying glass effect. The background offers beautiful vegetation with real-world colors.
The most recognizable feature of this butterfly is the pattern on the underside of its hindwings. This pattern resembles the number 88, which gives rise to its common name. The “88” marking is typically white or pale blue against a dark background, creating a stark contrast that is easily visible when the butterfly is at rest with its wings closed. This unique pattern has made the Diaethria clymena a favorite among butterfly enthusiasts and collectors.
These 2024 17.5 Gram Proof Silver Cameroon Butterflies Diaethria Clymena Coins are available with individual packaging. Each coin is housed in a black presentation case with a window display. The coins feature colorized visuals on the reverse with the aforementioned domed feature above the butterfly.
