Afghanistan United Nations UN Islam Mosque Minaret SP64 PCGS silver medal 1976

The Afghanistan United Nations 1976 silver medal is a scarce and historically important issue struck to highlight Afghanistan’s place within the global community and the ideals of international cooperation promoted by the UN. Graded SP64 by PCGS, it combines national identity with a universal message of peace.
The obverse depicts a finely detailed view of a grand mosque with tall minarets, an outstanding symbol of Afghan culture and Islamic architecture. Birds are shown flying above the building, adding a sense of harmony and freedom. The inscription in Dari identifies the country as Afghanistan, reinforcing its heritage and pride. The scene not only illustrates the country’s architecture but also symbolizes spirituality and the desire for unity.
The reverse features the official United Nations emblem: a world map surrounded by olive branches, the symbol of peace. Encircling the design are multilingual inscriptions for “United Nations,” rendered in English, French, Spanish, Russian, and Chinese, highlighting the universality of the organization.
Struck in silver with a Specimen finish, this medal is both rare and artistically refined. It holds a special place for collectors of UN commemoratives, Islamic architecture in numismatics, and Afghan historical issues.
