2020 - Mongolia Majestic Eagle
The Black Proof Ultra High Relief Coin struck from 2 ounces of 99.9% silver is the first release in the Wild Mongolia Series and is dedicated to the king of the skies - the Majestic Eagle. The motive depicts two different representations of a Stone Eagle. While the animal is presented in half-profile in the foreground, it is shown from the front in the background and seems to stare at the viewer with a penetrating gaze.
This stunning 2 oz silver Black Proof features the same design that was released in Berlin, but done with a different finish that has become a very popular way to collect coins. CIT released the Majestic Eagle to showcase their newest smartminting© technology. It was an instant success and was featured in many numismatic publications and sold out almost instantly. Numismatic experts and collectors alike were stunned by its beauty and technical specifications. What’s incredible about the finish is that it allows every single detail to still be seen in brilliant clarity. Everything from the individual feathers to the eagle’s glare staring at you in the background and the way the claw rips through the surface of the coin, it’s all there!
Limited mintage to 999 pieces worldwide.
On the Reverse side of the coin there are the eagle claws holding an arrow and seem to snatch the coin. The obverse of the coin features the Mongolian Coat of Arms and the inscriptions: "1000 TOGROG" – the face value, "MONGOLIA" – the issuing country and "2 OZ .999 SILVER" – the weight and fineness of the Silver.

smartminting©
The smartminting© technology is a ground-breaking advancement in contemporary numismatics that permits an unparalleled level of ultra-high relief, and it establishes novel benchmarks in the coin industry.
This technology enables the production of standard weight coins with larger diameters, while maintaining high relief height.
It also allows for coins with greatly reduced weight to maintain standard relief heights and permits coins with only slightly increased weight to exhibit high reliefs.

2024 Mongolia S1000T Snow Leopard
The Wild Mongolia Series has showcased various animals from Mongolia and Central Asia, including the eagle, wolf, argali, and falcon. The snow leopard is a new addition.
The snow leopard, an elusive creature of the high mountain ranges in Central and South Asia, including the Himalayas, Hindu Kush, Karakoram, and Pamir, is now part of the Wild Mongolia Series.
Its ability to perfectly blend in with the harsh conditions of Mongolian landscape makes the snow leopard a prime example of survival and adaptability. It inhabits mountains at altitudes of up to 5,500 meters.
Snow leopards are apex predators in their ecosystem, primarily preying on mountain ungulates like ibex, blue sheep, and argali. They are also known to hunt smaller mammals, birds, and domestic livestock when wild prey is scarce. Their hunting style involves stalking and ambushing prey from above, using their powerful hind limbs to leap up to 15 meters in pursuit.
On the obverse, the 2024 Black Proof Silver Mongolia Snow Leopard shows two snow leopards. The left side features a stoic leopard gazing into the distance, dominating the field. The right side includes a stylized image of a leopard with rosettes forming its figure.
The reverse of the 2024 2 oz Black Proof Silver Snow Leopard features the seal of the Central Bank of Mongolia. This design includes the large paws and claws of the leopard gripping wood, with the bank’s seal on the right. The background has a unique geometric pattern with the hidden "2024" date struck into the design. The reverse also includes the Coat of Arms of Mongolia and the inscriptions: "1000 тогрог" – the face value, "MONGOLIA" – the country of issue.
